Below an overview is given of all BioSB courses. For each course, a link is given to the full course information.
General information about the BioSB Education programme can be found here.
In addition, you may find a synopsis of the BioSB Course portfolio in the full Education Programme (pdf), where information is given about all courses, including coordinators, expected date and a short course description.
Introductory courses
1- 5-days; once per year
Courses intended for novices. These courses can either be face-to-face or e-learning courses. The format differs per course. The course length ranges from 1 to 5 days. The frequency varies, but the aim is to have these courses at least once a year.
- Programming in Python
- Kick start R
- Programming in Matlab
- Discovering Systems Biology Principles
- eCourse Biomolecular principles of the Cell
- eCourse Modelling of Biological Processes
- eCcourse Elementary Calculus in Systems Biology
Core Courses
5-days; once per 2 years; 3 ECTS
Courses for PhD students and other researchers in bioinformatics and systems biology. The topics and themes in the core programme form a coherent curriculum. The courses have a format of 5 days, with additional extra work (before and after ) with a total study load of 3 EC. These courses will be offered once per two years.
- Pattern Recognition
- Managing and Integrating Information in the Life Sciences
- Optimisation Techniques in Bioinformatics and Systems Biology
- Multi-scale modelling
- Comparative Genomics: from Evolution to Function
- Protein Structures: Production, Prowess, Power, Promises, and Problems
- Algorithms for Biological Networks
