COM SCI C122
Algorithms in Computational Genomics
Computer Science · 4 units · Undergraduate upper division (100-199)
(Formerly numbered CM122.) Course C121 is not requisite to C122. Prior knowledge of biology not required. Designed for engineering students as well as students from biological sciences and medical school. Databases of genomic sequence data are among the largest datasets in all of science. Assembling, indexing, and querying such tremendous datasets is computationally challenging yet critical for many areas of biomedical research. Focus on development of scalable algorithms for analysis of genomic sequence data, with additional focus on formulating biologically relevant problems as computational problems and then solving these problems by developing new algorithms. Concurrently scheduled with course C222.
Letter grading.
