Learning structural bioinformatics and evolution with a snake puzzle

Wepropose here a working unit for teaching basic concepts of structural bioinformatics and evolution through the example of a wooden snake puzzle, strikingly similar to toy models widely used in the literature of protein folding. In our experience, developed at a Master’s course at the Universidad Autónoma deMadrid (Spain), the concreteness of this example helps to overcome difficulties caused ...

‏‎a comparative study of language learning strategies employmed by bilinguals and monolinguals with reference to attitudes and motivation‎‏

هدف از این تحقیق بررسی برخی عوامل ادراکی واحساسی یعنی استفاده از شیوه های یادگیری زبان ، انگیزه ها ونگرش نسبت به زبان انگلیسی در رابطه با زمینه زبانی زبان آموزان می باشد. هدف بررسی این نکته بود که آیا اختلافی چشمگیر میان زبان آموزان دو زبانه و تک زبانه در میزان استفاده از شیوه های یادگیری زبان ، انگیزه ها نگرش و سطح مهارت زبانی وجود دارد. همچنین سعی شد تا بهترین و موثرترین عوامل پیش بینی کننده ...

Solving the snake cube puzzle in Haskell

We describe a concise and elegant functional program, written in Haskell, that computes solutions for a classic puzzle known as the “snake cube”. The program reflects some of the fundamental characteristics of the functional style, identifying key abstractions, and defining a small collection of operators for manipulating and working with the associated values. Well-suited for an introductory c...

Bioinformatics III: Structural Bioinformatics and Genome Analysis

Probabilistic models and machine learning in structural bioinformatics.

Structural bioinformatics is concerned with the molecular structure of biomacromolecules on a genomic scale, using computational methods. Classic problems in structural bioinformatics include the prediction of protein and RNA structure from sequence, the design of artificial proteins or enzymes, and the automated analysis and comparison of biomacromolecules in atomic detail. The determination o...
