====== Bioinformatics Nano Course ======
1. **Dates**: 22-24 Mar 2010\\
2. **Name**: Bioinformatics: What? When? How?\\
3. **Description**: This nano course aims to answer three major questions about Bioinformatics: What is Bioinformatics? When should we consider a Bioinformatics approach? And how can Bioinformatics help us in a specific field of molecular biology?. To accomplish this goal, a series of lectures on different fields of Bioinformatics will be presented, in areas ranging from biologically relevant Databases to methods of High-throughput Genomics. We will present the current state of the art and what are the future perspectives, challenges and goals in the field.

==== Course Program ==== 
This course will consist in a series of talks followed by short journal clubs where groups of students will present papers suggested by the speakers of the previews talks.\\
The students need to prepare a 15-20 mins presentation about the paper (They can present 5 powerpoint slides maximum), presenting the general idea of the paper, by explaining the problem, describing what methods were used, and what were the article main achievements.
