Objectifs pédagogiques

A deluge of information originating from the use of high-throughput sequencing methods and other genomic scale technologies has been deposited in specialized databases over the last years. Mining of biological information from databases is critical to understand living organisms, to predict their behavior, and to exploit them. The course aims to introduce students on the use of bioinformatics tools to study the biology of microorganisms at a genome-wide scale, in an integrative perspective, and focused on the use of various Omics approaches including Genomics, Metagenomics, RNomics and Proteomics
