Implementing Bioinformatics in Introductory Undergraduate Biology Courses:
Exploring Microbiology, Molecular Data and Visualization

Location:
San Diego, CA

Date(s):
January 3, 2007 - January 6, 2007

Our Description:
Bioinformatics impacts biology in many areas including medicine, agriculture, conservation, and evolution. This workshop will introduce resources for learning how the analysis of microbial genomes, molecular sequence and structural data can address a wide range of biological problems. We will explore the role of evolutionary theory as a context for interpreting comparative analyses and making inferences about structural and functional similarities. The workshop includes a variety of hands-on sessions that use a research questions to model strategies for engaging students in deep learning opportunities. This approach incorporates problem posing, problem-solving, and peer review/publication (BioQUEST's 3 P's).
