Course content
The educational discipline is devoted to the study of the role of modern information
technologies in biology and methods of statistical analysis of biological data.
The main concepts, algorithms and fields of application are considered
bioinformatics. Knowledge of theoretical and applied aspects is provided
creation (using the R programming language as an example) and computer use
programs, databases and modern information technologies in biological
research, as well as practical skills in their application to obtain,
analysis, presentation and storage of biological information. Discipline forms
students have an idea of random variables and their distributions, basic
principles of probability theory. Provides basic knowledge of general patterns
planning of biological experiments, formation of selective statistics
aggregates and their classification mechanisms. Particular attention is paid to the main ones
reliability criteria of statistical evaluation and statistical verification
hypotheses, methods of numerical and non-numerical data analysis.
