Perl Programming for Bioinformatics 1 Workshop
On Friday, March 29, 2013, Dr. Hany Alashwal, the
RI-INBRE Bioinformatics Coordinator, will be conducting a workshop
entitled "Perl Programming for Bioinformatics 1". In this
workshop, a gentle introduction to programming using Perl will be
presented. No prior experience in programming is required.
The main goal of this workshop is to highlight the usefulness of
programming languages in biological and biomedical research. Perl
is a popular programming language with biologists because of its
simplicity and suitability for text manipulation which is very useful in
many bioinformatics tasks. This workshop will be held in a
computer lab with Perl installed on the machines. If you
questions, please contact Dr. Alashwal at
hany@uri.edu.
A
series of Bioinformatics workshops will follow covering topics of
greater interest to the research community at the University of Rhode
Island and other RI-INBRE institutions.
