This lecture series conducted at National Dong Hwa University covers the essential concepts of computational biology, emphasizing the application of computational techniques to model biological systems across various complexities, from atomic to pathological levels. Key topics include the central dogma of molecular biology (DNA, RNA, and proteins), amino acid coding, and strategies for protein folding. The series also delves into critical paradigms in bioinformatics, including sequence alignment, hidden Markov models, molecular evolution, phylogeny, and microarray analysis, providing foundational knowledge for students and researchers in the field.
