    UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER SCHOOL OF MEDICINE AND DENTISTRY Graduate Studies in BIOPHYSICS, STRUCTURAL AND COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY Student Handbook August 2019 David Mathews, Program Director Joseph Wedekind, Education Committee Chair Melissa Vera, Graduate Studies Coordinator PREFACE The Biophysics, Structural and Computational Biology (BSCB) Faculty administers the Ph.D. degree program in Biophysics for the Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics. This handbook is intended to outline the major features and policies of the program. The general features of the graduate experience at the University of Rochester are summarized in the Graduate Bulletin, which is updated every two years. Students and advisors will need to consult both sources, though it is our intent to provide the salient features here. Policy, of course, continues to evolve in response to the changing needs of the graduate programs and the students in them. Thus, it is wise to verify any crucial decisions with the Graduate Studies Coordinator. i TABLE OF CONTENTS Page I. DEFINITIONS 1 II. BIOPHYSICS CURRICULUM 2 A. Courses 2 1. Core Curriculum 2.

  • A Sample Workload for Bioinformatics and Computational Biology for Optimizing Next-Generation High-Performance Computer Systems
    BioSPLASH: A sample workload for bioinformatics and computational biology for optimizing next-generation high-performance computer systems David A. Bader∗ Vipin Sachdeva Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 87131 Virat Agarwal Gaurav Goel Abhishek N. Singh Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi May 1, 2005 Abstract BioSPLASH is a suite of representative applications that we have assembled from the com- putational biology community, where the codes are carefully selected to span a breadth of algorithms and performance characteristics. The main results of this paper are the assembly of a scalable bioinformatics workload with impact to the DARPA High Produc- tivity Computing Systems Program to develop revolutionarily-new economically- viable high-performance computing systems,andanalyses of the performance of these codes for computationally demanding instances using the cycle-accurate IBM MAMBO simulator and real performance monitoring on an Apple G5 system. Hence, our work is novel in that it is one of the first efforts to incorporate life science application per- formance for optimizing high-end computer system architectures. 1 Algorithms in Computational Biology In the 50 years since the discovery of the structure of DNA, and with new techniques for sequencing the entire genome of organisms, biology is rapidly moving towards a data-intensive, computational science. Biologists are in search of biomolecular sequence data, for its comparison with other genomes, and because its structure determines function and leads to the understanding of bio- chemical pathways, disease prevention and cure, and the mechanisms of life itself. Computational biology has been aided by recent advances in both technology and algorithms; for instance, the ability to sequence short contiguous strings of DNA and from these reconstruct the whole genome (e.g., see [34, 2, 33]) and the proliferation of high-speed micro array, gene, and protein chips (e.g., see [27]) for the study of gene expression and function determination.

  • Computational Biology Practicum – Botany 5555 – Spring 2018
    Computational Biology Practicum – Botany 5555 – Spring 2018 Class meetings: Enzi STEM Building 120, 1:20–2:35 p.m., Tuesday & Thursday Website: uwyo.instructure.com Professor: Alex Buerkle, [email protected], Aven Nelson 202 Office Hours: Wednesday and Friday 1–2 p.m. and by appt. Overview Modern biology often involves the analysis of large amounts of data, inference based on probabilistic models, or both. This course builds on students’ previous experience in com- putational biology and extends it into the context of applied, computational analysis of biological data. In particular, the analyses will be performed for clients, who will provide real biological data from on-going projects that require computational statistical analysis. The clients will lay out the scientific context and motivation, and be the subdisciplinary ex- pert in biology. Teams of students will work together, with consultation and direction from the instructor, to answer the scientific questions and perform the analyses for the client. The research products will be delivered, evaluated and refined at intermediate stages, through written and in-person presentations with the client. Likewise, final research products will be delivered to the client and will utilize best practices in report generation and reproducible research. The delivery of analyses to clients is a valuable experience for data science careers in academics, government or business. Computational biology can open a world of possibilities for research and employment. The computational and analysis skills we will practice are increasingly imperative for biol- ogists (e.g., see the mention of computation, statistics and quantitative analysis in many job advertisements). Without them the scope and ambition for biological research are un- necessarily constrained.

CM approaches can provide insight into and across many areas of biology, including genetics, genomics, molecular networks, cellular and tissue physiology, organ systems, and whole body pharmacology. CM research at ICM is sub-divided into four key areas: Computational Molecular Medicine (http://icm.jhu.edu/research-areas-2/computational- molecular-medicine/); Computational Physiological Medicine (http://icm.jhu.edu/research-areas-2/computational-physiological- medicine/); Computational Anatomy (http://icm.jhu.edu/research- areas-2/computational-anatomy/); Computational Healthcare (http:// icm.jhu.edu/research-areas-2/computational-healthcare/). Techniques for and applications in each of these four key subareas are introduced during the required core courses, exposing students to the breadth of Computational Medicine, and enabling each student to identify a preferred area of interest: • Computational Physiological Medicine develops mechanistic models of biological systems in disease, and applies the insights gained from these models to develop improved diagnostics and therapies.
