Computational Pangenomics (2S)

392230 Stoye Winter 2020/21 Monday, 10-12 via Zoom

Contents

Based on original research papers, the participants will give oral presentations (20-45 min) and write short summaries (ca. 5 pages), both in English, about current algorithmic problems in computational pangenomics and their solutions.

This class will be given as a live video conference. Details will be distributed to registered participants short before the first class on October 26.
