Course Content
The course is an introduction to structural bioinformatics. Additionally, advanced techniques used in structural bioinformatics will be covered. In the scope of this course, students will learn to analyze, classify, simulate, predict and visualize biological molecules, mainly proteins. We cover the fundamentals of protein structures, structure determination techniques, molecular dynamics simulations, molecular docking and techniques to predict the protein interaction in atomic resolution.
