Abstract

Many colleges and universities have recently begun offering courses and degree programs in bioinformatics. This paper describes an Introduction to Bioinformatics course that emphasizes the informatics issues, and can be taught to upper-level undergraduate computer science students and graduate students. The course can be adapted to fit the interests and experience of a faculty member in computer science who has only a moderate amount of familiarity with molecular biology.
