Module content:
Computer-aided research in the natural sciences (biology, pharmacy, biotechnology,...) generates large amounts of data that must be archived and analyzed. This requires efficient algorithms. First, the algorithms used in the sequencing of the human genome will be introduced in the lecture. Then, methods for the identification of genes (gene prediction) will be described. Hidden Markov models are an important part of this process. The methods discussed make it possible to predict the 3-D structure and function of proteins. In conclusion, we will discuss the algorithms and procedures used by pharmaceutical companies in the computer-aided search for new active ingredients (computer-aided drug design). 1. Basics 2. Genome sequencing algorithms 3. Hidden Markov models 4. The application of hidden Markov models for the identification of genes 5. Protein structure predictions and databases 6. Computer-aided drug design

Teaching methods/Media:
50% of the lecture will take place in the PC lab AMSEL "Angewandte Mathematik, Statistik und eLearning". Computer-supported practical case studies will be worked through using the algorithms taught in this module. In addition, the e-learning system ActiveMath: Statistics will be used to learn about topics from the field of stochastics, especially the Markov models.
