Computational biology, or Biocomputing, is concerned with methods for the efficient storage and processing of biological data. A large part of the work of computational biologists thus consists of the management and analysis of strings of characters. These strings may be nucleic acid or protein sequences, or their annotation. The University of Manchester's distance learning course in Biocomputing introduces unix, perl for data processing, and database design. As we begin at an introductory level, no prior programming experience is required. In the second part of the course students will implement a database design in MySQL. This course, which is just one of our online Masters level courses in Digital Biology, will begin again in October. Our other courses include : Bioinformatics for Systems Biology Health Informatics Computational Systems Biology Introduction to software development in Java You will find links to all of our online courses here : http://octette.cs.man.ac.uk/bioinformatics/modules/index.html If you have questions about any course, please contact the tutor named on the course information page. For general queries about the programme in Digital Biology, and to apply, please mail our office for Advanced Professional Education (ape@cs.man.ac.uk).
