This course discusses the basic biology of modern genomics and the experimental tools used for measurement. This is the first course in the Genomic Big Data Science Specialization.

This online course gives an introduction to whole genome sequencing (WGS). It also includes WGS applications in surveillance of bacteria.

This online course gives an introduction to the structure and meaning of DNA and the genetic code.

This course explores that dynamic programming is a powerful algorithmic tool when comparing two genes (i.e., short sequences of DNA) or two proteins. When "zooming out" to...

This course will present short primers in genetics and mechanisms underlying variability in drug responses. A series of case studies will be used to illustrate principles of how...

How do we infer which genes orchestrate various processes in the cell? How did humans migrate out of Africa and spread around the world? In this class these two seemingly...
