This course will introduce students to advanced concepts in computer programming through real-world "end-to-end" case studies. Additionally, this course will provide a comprehensive introduction to the domain of biomedical informatics from a computer programming perspective and will also provide implementation examples that are representative of problems that practitioners in the medical field have to solve. During the course, students will learn how biomedical informaticists access and process healthcare and medical data. Topics will include: common IT methods and tools, important numerical algorithms, commercial products as well as open-source tools and libraries.
