computational biology

The spring 2014 LSU computational biology seminars for undergraduates will kick off tomorrow, Jan. 22nd. The first seminar will be given by Dr. Dorel Moldovan from LSU's Dept. of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering. Dr. Moldovan will be speaking about "Molecular Dynamics Simulation Studies of Surface and Interfacial Phenomena in Biomolecular Systems".  The talk will be preceded by food in the Life Science Annex Atrium at 5 and will then run from 5:30-6:30 in the Life Science Annex Auditorium.

Video of Dr. Brown's inaugural talk in the new Computational Biology Seminar Series for Undergraduates at LSU is now available here: http://lbrn.lsu.edu/events/comp-bio/brown.html.

A new monthly seminar series on computational biology has just begun at LSU.  These seminars are targeted towards undergraduates and intended to stimulate student interest in the intersection of biology and computation.  This semester, students will learn about exciting research being done by new faculty here in LSU's Dept. of Biological Sciences.  Dr. Brown kicked off the series on Sept. 9th with his talk, titled "Models, Genomes, and Trees: Computational Inferences of Evolutionary History".  The next talk will be given by Dr.
