Computational Functional Genomics

Projects

An integral part of the course is a student project component that is based on our case study theme of understanding biological mechanism. Interdisciplinary groups of students are encouraged to work together to develop novel analysis methodologies to examine recent data.

Following are examples of student reports on their projects. (Files are courtesy of the authors, used with permission.)
