Introduction to Bioinformatics Course
Course Description:

This course in Bioinformatics consists of three modules, entitled Overview, Tools & Databases, and Applications, each of about 15 minutes in duration. It provides industry professionals, researchers, managers, investors and others with a comprehensive review of modern Bioinformatics. It is also geared towards computer scientists, engineers and others wishing to gain an overview of Bioinformatics.

Immunity and Disease Course
Course Description:

This course describes the role of the immune system in human disease. It covers the structure and function of the immune system, and details how the immune system can be up-regulated for vaccination against infectious agents, and down-regulated to treat autoimmune diseases. The generation of monoclonal antibodies and their therapeutic use is also described.

Computer-Assisted Drug Design Course
Course Description:

This course gives an introduction to the use of computers for protein-based and small molecule drug design. It covers protein and antibody reengineering, peptide design, and structure based analysis of small molecule drugs. Computer modeling of drug-receptor interactions, and its use for structure optimization is also described.

Combinatorial Chemistry Course
Course Description

The course introduces the use of combinatorial chemistry for drug discovery. It covers the requirements for performing combinatorial chemistry, the design and synthesis of combinatorial libraries, and molecular diversity analysis as applied to antibodies, peptides, nucleic acids, and small molecules.

Genomics Course
Course Description:

This course provides an introduction to the field of genomics. It covers the structure of the human genome, and the strategies that were used to map and sequence the genome, and details how genomic sequence information is utilized for pharmacogenomics, drug discovery and diagnostics. The course also introduces post-genomics technologies such as bioinformatics, functional genomics and proteomics.

Human Gene Therapy Course
Course Description:

This course gives an overview of the field of human gene therapy. It covers the fundamentals of using gene delivery for treating human diseases, and details the viral vectors that are used for gene delivery, including their generation and use, the non-viral approaches that can be used to deliver therapeutic genes, and the methods that are used for controlling therapeutic gene expression.
