Rules:

Oral presentations take 20+20 minutes (groups of 2) or 15+15+15 minutes (groups of 3). Every group writes a written summary of 15 pages (groups of 2) or 18 pages (groups of 3). The first version has to be handed in by July 21, 2010.

Topics:

In this seminar we will see combinatoric approaches for problems involving large scale genome rearrangements, such as inversions, fusions, fissions, translocations, block-interchanges and transpositions:

  • Genomic distance and sorting
  • Genome halving
  • Median of three genomes
  • Common intervals
