"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn." - Benjamin Franklin
We teach professional skills in bioinformatics. These skills are not just running software. They will give you the freedom of exploring various real data.
Courses
本书主要用于清华大学本科生课《生物信息学》和博士生课《生物信息学实践》
Aim
写在前面的话
相对于过去,突然地,我们发现数据不是太少而是太多,信息不是匮乏而是繁杂,新一代人的重要能力是“鉴别”和“挖掘”。
对生物信息学的工作而言,最重要的、最有用的基本工具和技能过去一直是,我相信很长一段时间也会始终是:

We aim to teach basic data skills that give you freedom.
Running bioinformatics software isn’t all that difficult, doesn’t take much skill, and it doesn’t embody any of the significant challenges of bioinformatics.…These data skills give you freedom…
I believe these two qualities — reproducibility and robustness.
So what is a reproducible bioinformatics project? At the very least, it’s sharing your project’s code and data.
In wet lab biology, when experiments fail, it can be very apparent, but this is not always true in computing. Electrophoresis gels that look like Rorschach blots rather than tidy bands clearly indicate something went wrong. Unfortunately, without prior expectations, it can be quite difficult to distinguish good results from bad results.
The easy way to ensure everything is working properly is to adopt a cautious attitude , and check everything between computational steps.
You will almost certainly have to rerun an analysis more than once.
Write Code for Humans, Write Data for Computers
Use Existing Libraries Whenever Possible
Treat Data as Read-Only
Document Everything (-- Too geeky?) Just as a well-organized laboratory makes a scientist’s life easier, a well-organized and well-documented project makes a bioinformatician’s life easier.
