Hello folks! Welcome to the brand new version of NCBI Mastery: A Beginner's Guide to Bioinformatics Course, Udemy’s most popular introductory bioinformatics curriculum. Aren’t you curious to know recent advances in bioinformatics? Do you wish to use bioinformatics tools and databases in your research? If yes, then you have landed in the right place.
This course talks about NCBI, The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) which is a public and primary database maintained by the National Library of Medicine (NLM), a government organization that is under the control of the US govt. It contains genes, genetic information, proteins, and many more. Each data is stored in a different database like gene is stored in gene database which is hosted by NCBI. There are multiple databases in NCBI which is nothing but for categorizing the data.
As the graphical user interface of various databases of NCBI and features gets updated in NCBI, we will update our courses accordingly which is an added advantage for you. So, we are way different from the YouTube videos which usually have an older version of the NCBI databases. Therefore, think of it as a subscription to a never-ending supply of bioinformatics knowledge regarding NCBI.
Throughout the course, we will cover tons of tools and databases of NCBI like:
· mRNA Sequence Retrieval
· mRNA Sequence Analysis
· Gene Database
· FASTA Format
· Genbank Format
· Genbank Database
· RefSeq Database
· HomoloGene Database
