Coursera Bioinformatics Specialization: 6 courses plus 1 Capstone

Description:

How do we sequence and compare genomes? How do we identify the genetic basis for disease? We will learn how algorithms and popular software tools are used to answer these and many other questions in modern biology as well as apply them to real experimental datasets in a "Big Data in Biology" Capstone Project developed jointly with scientists at Illumina, the leading DNA sequencing company.
