Feb 28 Meeting Moved to March 6 |

| Purpose | ||||||||||||||||||
| The purpose of the journal club is to bring together members of the
MIT community interested in the problem of mining genomic data for biological
information.
Two general sets of questions act as organizing principles for the meeting:
(1) What methods exist for computational sequence analysis. What
are their theoretical underpinnings, and what are their advantages and
disadvantages? and (2) What biological questions are amenable to
computational methods? Do tools exists to answer these questions?
If not, can tools be modified to answer these questions, or can we develop
new tools to answer these questions?

| Format | ||||||||||||||||||
| Meetings are held once every other Monday at 4pm on a predetermined
