BioInformatics Series - Session 1

🚀 Welcome to the Bioinformatics Series! 🧬💻

Hey future bio-coders! 🎉 Get ready to explore how biology meets technology in an exciting, hands-on way! 🧑‍🔬✨

Ever wondered how scientists decode DNA 🧬, track viruses 🦠, or develop new medicines 💊? They use code! By the end of this course, you’ll be writing Python programs to analyze genetic data—no prior coding experience needed! 🐍💡
What to Expect?

This 4-part series is designed for beginners! In Session 1, you’ll dive into Python basics and bioinformatics by:
✅ Reading DNA sequences from a file 📄
✅ Counting nucleotides (A, T, C, G) 🔢
✅ Converting DNA to RNA 🎯

By the end, you’ll have your first bioinformatics script running!

📢 Presented by IEEE Student Branch ULFS2 and led by Elie Dina, PhD student in AI & Data Science.

📅 Date: Tuesday, April 8, 2025
⏰ Time: 7:30 PM (1h30)
📍 Online via Google Meet

Join us and code your way into bioinformatics! 🚀

Agenda

In the first session, we’ll start with the absolute basics of Python 🐍—no complicated stuff, just the essentials to get you started. Then, we’ll jump right into bioinformatics by working with real DNA sequences! 🧬 You’ll learn how to:
✅ Read DNA sequences from a file 📄
✅ Count how many times A, T, C, and G appear 🔢
✅ Convert DNA to RNA in just a few lines of code 🎯
