Index to Course Material
This material relates to the introductory phase of the course.
- Proteins - a brief overview
- Internet Tutorial
A number of you may already be very familiar with most aspects of the Internet, but this is included as a
reference for those who may be newer to the technology, as its essential that
everyone appreciates how we communicate with each other and how to navigate the 'Net. This tutorial was originally
written by Sami Raza,
and has been updated for the PPS course by Oliver
Theis.
The tutorial includes an introduction to writing
HTML, if you're thinking of putting together your own home page or any other material. We will be looking
at some more sophisticated applications of HTML later in the course.
- An additional brief Introduction to Network Resources
- You should also refer to Chapter 2 (particularly sections 1-5) of the VSNS Biocomputing Course,
Networking by David Steffen,
which describes the application of
the Internet to biological sciences.
