31. A Ring to Rule Them All
32. Recommended Syllabus (cont)(core concepts with a at least 50% popularity)
35. Conclusions I Collected information from a variety of sources regarding the composition of core bioinformatics curricula
There is an overwhelming consensus that the next generation of Bioinformaticians must be trained from scratch as Biologist+Computer Scientist challenging the orthogonal traditional view.
36. Conclusions (cont) This poses as much a pedagogical and logistic challenge as a cultural one:
CS people tend to disregard the non-numerary aspects of biology
Biology people tend to shy away from mathematical thinking
Must send students to the wet lab work bench and to rigorous CS courses
