"Bioinformatics in Biology Education:  Working With Sequence, Structure and Function"

Oklahoma City Community College
Oklahoma City, OK
6 - 8 January 2005

http://bioquest.org/bedrock/oklahoma_city_01_05/

Part of an NSF funded bioinformatics education project titled BEDROCK that focuses on helping faculty develop strategies for incorporating bioinformatics into their courses.

The workshop will begin on Thursday and run through Saturday. The bulk of the workshop will involve a mixture of focused presentations on the conceptual basis for bioinformatics analyses and hands-on group problem solving activities around rich biological contexts.  This workshop is appropriate for faculty who have beginning or
intermediate experience with sequence analysis.

Participants will be responsible for the cost of their travel and lodging but there are no fees for the workshop itself or the materials provided. Some meals will also be provided.

We do have some resources available to provide lodging for faculty who are employed by one of the Oklahoma INBRE undergraduate campuses (Langston University, Northeastern State University, Southwestern Oklahoma State University, Oklahoma City Community College, University of Central Oklahoma, Cameron University, Redlands Community College, and Comanche Nation College). Please email
risseeuw@beloit.edu if this applies to you.
