CAP 5510 - Bioinformatics: On Survey

Surveys will be done individually. You can choose any focused topic in bioinformatics --not necessarily covered in the course. You will read at least five papers that covers the background in that area and summarize them.

I expect surveys to be like a book chapter, one with some background can read and learn the area.

Surveys will be at most 5 pages (12pt font).

You can choose your survey topic the same as your project.

More than one person may chose same topic and even same set of papers. You can also discuss these papers together. However, the summaries must be done individually. Keep in mind that is very easy to detect plagiarism.

You will return one hard copy to me. The surveys are due the last week of the classes before or on the last lecture of this semester.

Late submissions will be penalized by 20 % of the grade per day.
