2) An audio record for class today can found here: http://info.gersteinlab.org/Cbb752a12#Audio_recordings_for_selected_lectures.


-23 Sept 2012
[QUIZ 1] The first quiz will be on Monday (tomorrow 24 Sept 2012) and it will happen at the start of class, at 1pm, so please try to be on time for class. It will be a 20-minute quiz. Lecture will follow the quiz.

[ASSIGNMENT 1] The first assignment will also be posted this week on Wed. Please keep a lookout for it on Wed. There will be a separate programming and non-programming assignment for the 2 groups. You only need to do one of 2 depending on your course code, not both. More details will be on class wiki on Wed.


-20 Sept 2012
[Past Quizzes] I have put up last semester’s quizzes on class wiki under the category below, and you can also look at previous quizzes under “2009 and earlier”. The format is pretty much the same. http://info.gersteinlab.org/Cbb752a12#Pages_from_previous_years.

-18 Sept 2012
[Poll results] Poll results are on class wiki.

[Section] The section is confirmed to be on Thursdays 4-5pm in BASS room 405 (same room as before). These are the section dates: 20th Sept, 27th Sept, 4th Oct, 11th Oct, 1st Nov, 8th Nov, 15th Nov, 29th Nov (edited)

So this Thursday will be the next section 4-5pm BASS 405.

[Quiz] Quiz 1 is next week, 24th Sept (Monday). Please note that all materials (including discussion papers) up till and including tomorrow’s lecture will be covered. It will be a 20-minute quiz. You can refer to quizzes from previous years for practice.

[Cluster account] We have signed 12 people up for a cluster account on Bulldog L, these people have included their netIDs in the poll, although only 9 are officially enrolled in cbb/cpsc course code. You should have received an email from the systems admin.


-16 Sept 2012
[LECTURE] Note that there will be NO LECTURE tomorrow (Monday 17th SEPT 2012). The next lecture is on Wednesday 19th SEPT 2012.

[SECTION] According to the new poll results, these people on the mailing list will be your fellow course mates and the section timing is still every Thursday 4-5pm. So the next section is this Thursday 20th SEPT 2012. I will post the venue soon.


-14 Sept 2012
[POLL2] A reminder: PLEASE fill out Poll2 ASAP, in order for Yao and I to expedite the admin process (e.g. reserve the room and get cluster accounts for the people doing the computational assignments and final project) and most importantly to let you guys know when and where the next section will be. So we would greatly appreciate if you guys fill this out by end of TODAY.

EVERYBODY intending to take/audit this course is to fill out this poll. Subsequent mailing list and discussion timing will depend ENTIRELY on this new poll.

CB&B752/CPSC752

This version of the course consists of lectures, programming assignments, and a final programming project.


For graduate students the course is broken up into two "modules" (each counting 0.5 credit towards MB&B course requirement):

MB&B 753a3, Bioinformatics: Practical Application of Data Mining (1st half of term)

MB&B 754a4, Bioinformatics: Practical Application of Simulation (2nd half of term)

Each module consists of lectures, written problem sets, and a final, graduate level written project that is half the length of the full course's final project.


For the grade weighting schemes of each course version, see Class Requirements section.

Prerequisites

The course is keyed towards CBB graduate students as well as advanced MB&B undergraduates and graduate students wishing to learn about types of large-scale quantitative analyses that whole-genome sequencing will make possible. It would also be suitable for students from other fields such as computer science or physics wanting to learn about an important new biological application for computation.

Students should have:

A basic knowledge of biochemistry and molecular biology. A knowledge of basic quantitative concepts, such as single variable calculus, some probability and statistics, and basic programming skills. These can be fulfilled by the following prerequisites statement: "Prerequisites: MBB 200 and Mathematics 115 or permission of the instructor."

Plagiarism

Below is a message from Dean Mary Miller of Yale College about citing your references and sources of information and plagiarism:

"

  • You need to cite all sources used for papers, including drafts of papers, and repeat the reference each time you use the source in your written work.
  • You need to place quotation marks around any cited or cut-and-pasted materials, IN ADDITION TO footnoting or otherwise marking the source.

If you do not quote directly – that is, if you paraphrase – you still need to mark your source each time you use borrowed material. Otherwise you have plagiarized.

  • It is also advisable that you list all sources consulted for the draft or paper in the closing materials, such as a bibliography or roster of sources consulted.
  • You may not submit the same paper, or substantially the same paper, in more than one course. If topics for two courses coincide, you need written permission from both instructors before either combining work on two papers or revising an earlier paper for submission to a new course.

It is the policy of Yale College that all cases of academic dishonesty be reported to the chair of the Executive Committee....

"


Also, it might be of interest to people, to look at this recent article regarding academic dishonesty.

Class Requirements

Discussion Section / Readings

Papers will be assigned throughout the course. These papers will be presented and discussed in weekly 60-minute sections with the TFs. A brief summary (a half-page per article) should be submitted at the beginning of the discussion session.

Bioinformatics quizzes

There will be four short quizzes (25 minutes) in class comprising SIMPLE questions that you should be able to answer from the lectures plus the main readings.

Programming Assignments (CBB and CS) and Programming issues

There will be several short programming assignments required for CBB and CS students taking this course. Acceptable languages and submission requirements will be discussed prior to the first assignment. These assignments are NOT required for students not taking the CBB or CS sections of the course.

These are the programming languages that we permit in the programming assignments and final project: Perl, Python, C, C++, MATLAB and R. If you really feel more comfortable with other languages, please email the TFs to discuss. Also, packages such as BioPerl and BioPython are not allowed in the assignments and final project. If in doubt, please consult the TFs.

We recommend the use of PERL for most of the programming. A useful resource is the following book: Programming Perl, 3rd Edition in the O' Reilly series, by Larry Wall, Tom Christiansen, Jon Orwant. The Yale Library has also older editions, which would work too. We would also recommend the following online resources: http://www.perlmonks.org/ and http://stackoverflow.com/. Otherwise, Google is your best friend.
