Bioinformatics for Infectious Diseases
In this program, we will speak about viral diversity and its role in epidemic infectious diseases that keep re-emerging, including zoonotic transmission, transmission between humans and the process of viral and bacterial disease development, learn about Bioinformatics Analysis Approaches to study viral genomes and understand relationships between viral strains and haplotypes, finding differences in sequence data and seeing the implications for drug and vaccine design and practice analyzing data to gain hands-on experience with Curated Datasets from public domain collections, guided by experts with bioinformatics experience and knowledge about virology.
