Prerequisites:
Introduction to Bioinformatics (course #27011 or similar) and General Biotechnology and Life Science (course #27000 or similar). Entry level college math and biology are essential.
For those who would like a review of basic Bioinformatics, see the lecture notes for the CBS Introduction to Bioinformatics course. For a background in basic molecular biology/genetics, there are several good texts on-line. For those who whish more microbiological information, Brock Biology of Microogranisms, by Michael Madigan, John Martinko, and Jack Parker, is available in the DTU bookstore and recommended.
