Research in Evolutionary Genomics (BIOL 4802)

Biology · Boston College

Satisfies the advanced experience requirement for the Biology major. This course will provide hands-on training in the collection and analysis of genome-scale data from non-model organisms. Students will learn good laboratory practices while learning protocols related to next-generation DNA sequencing. Students will also learn basic Linux/Unix computational skills and several bioinformatics tools that will be applied in managing and analyzing the massive amounts of data generated by this sequencing technology. Through data analyses and reviews of the primary literature, students will gain expo
