Fundamentals of Stringology I: Recap on Exact Pattern Matching and Alignment AlgorithmsDan Gusfield01h 01m
Presents two concrete algorithmic results and how they work: an exact‑matching method that computes prefix‑match lengths Z[i] in linear time via the…
Talk on
Fundamentals of Stringology II: Probability and Statistics for Sequence AlignmentMike Waterman52m
Distinguishes exact versus non-overlapping vs overlapping pattern counts, shows non-overlap increases mean waiting time (example HTHTH gives probability P Q…
Talk on
Fundamentals of Stringology III: Suffix Tress and Suffix ArraysDan Gusfield01h 01m
Defines suffix trees and suffix arrays, shows exact claims and constructions: suffix trees admit linear-time construction and let pattern queries and…
Talk on
Fundamentals of Stringology IV: The Burrows-Wheeler TransformDan Gusfield01h 07m
Defines the LCP array (longest common prefix) and gives a linear-time two-finger skip trick to compute each H[k] by skipping H[k]−1 characters when possible…

Fundamental Algorithms in Deep Sequencing I: AssemblyPavel Pevzner01h 05m
Covers concrete algorithmic steps and measured results: SPAdes assembler handles extreme coverage variation and chimeric reads to produce nearly complete…
Talk on
Fundamental Algorithms in Deep Sequencing II: Mapping/AlignmentLior Pachter01h 20m
Distinguishes classical sequence alignment (inferring evolutionary homology forests) from read mapping (short fragments with sequencing error), and argues most…
Talk on
Fundamental Algorithms in Deep Sequencing III: Genomic Compression: Storage, Transmission, and ...Noah M. Daniels01h 29m
Genome data is compressible by exploiting redundancy: reference-free bucketed transforms like Scalce/mintS reorder reads for LZ77, reference-based encodings…

Introduction to Cancer Bioinformatics I: Inferring Genomic Variation from Tumor Sequencing DataBen Raphael, Niko Beerenwinkel01h 31m
Course argues cancer sequencing needs beta‑binomial overdispersion models to avoid thousands of false SNV calls, shows ultra‑deep control detecting variants…
Talk on
Introduction to Cancer Bioinformatics II: Tumor PhylogenyBen Raphael, Niko Beerenwinkel01h 03m
Describes reconstructing tumor trees under the infinite sites assumption using perfect phylogeny, factoring sample variant allele frequencies (VAFs) via U×B…
Talk on
Introduction to Cancer Bioinformatics III: Cancer Progression NetworksNiko Beerenwinkel56m
Defines and fits explicit progression models: a restricted Bayesian network (oncogenetic tree) and its generalization (conjunctive Bayesian network) with one…
Talk on
Introduction to Regulatory Genomics and Epigenomics I: Intro to the Biology of Gene RegulationNadav Ahituv01h 13m
Regulatory sequences lack a simple code so mapping needs specific assays not broad claims: comparative genomics finds enhancers ~20–50% of the time, while p300…
Talk on
Introduction to Regulatory Genomics and Epigenomics II: Motif FindingYaron Orenstein01h 20m
Covers practical algorithms and data: MEME EM motif discovery uses an EM formulation to learn PWMs from unlabeled l‑mers; a simple k‑mer scoring method…

Introduction to Regulatory Genomics and Epigenomics III: Hidden Markov Models in Gene RegulationUwe Ohler01h 38m
Uwe Ohler, MDC Berlin Algorithmic Challenges in Genomics Boot Camp https://simons.berkeley.edu/talks/uwe-ohler-2016-01-21
Talk on
Introduction to Biological Network Analysis I: Network Basics and PropertiesDonna Slonim58m
Graph representations map molecules or patients to nodes and physical, regulatory or co-expression ties to edges, and show that clustering coefficient…
Talk on
Introduction to Biological Network Analysis II: Protein-Protein Interaction Networks: From Graphs toDonna Slonim01h 07m
Describes where protein‑protein interaction data come from (yeast two‑hybrid, co‑IP with mass spectrometry), catalogs public databases and Gene Ontology use…
Talk on
Introduction to Biological Network Analysis III: Identifying Network ModulesRoded Sharan01h 06m
Covers concrete algorithms and results for finding modules in protein networks: procedural heuristics like ENCODE, probabilistic scoring via NetworkBLAST…
Talk on
Introduction to Biological Network Analysis IV: Network Alignment and QueryingRoded Sharan49m
Argues that conserved subnetworks across species expose functional modules and improves specificity of interaction predictions, demonstrating tools like…
