BioPython for Bioinformatics

( Duration: 3 Days )

BioPython for Bioinformatics can parse Blast results (standalone and web); run biology related programs (blastall, clustalw, EMBOSS); deal with FASTA formatted files; parse GenBank files; parse PubMed, Medline and work with on-line resource; parse Expasy, SCOP, Rebase, UniGene, SwissProt; deal with Sequences; data classification (k Nearest Neighbors, Bayes, SVMs); Aligning sequences; CORBA interaction with Bioperl and BioJava; SQL database storage through BioSQL; Neural Networks; Genetic Algorithms; Hidden Markov Models; creating pretty PDF files for posters; format flat files with random access to entries; structural biology PDB, FSSP. In BioPython for Bioinformatics training course, you will learn to apply the BioPython capabilities in computational biology and bioinformatics.
