Computational Structural Bioinformatics: Winter 2024
Projects
General notes regarding the projects:
- Projects are team work, with a team containing 1 or 2 (preferred) members.
All members of a team will get the same grade.
- There will be three projects, all involving some programming.
You will do all 3 projects.
- The projects will be based on many resources available
on the web. It is very important that web pages, servers, research
papers, textbooks, etc. used for the projects
are cited properly in a reference section in the reports. I will not tolerate
plagiarism of any kind.
- Our TA put together a document on how to write an effective report for any of the projects! Please read it (available HERE)
- See bottom of the page for main rubrics that will be used for grading the projects
