World Wide Web Tutorials and Courses
The CMBI offers a number of courses on Bioinformatics and Cheminformatics topics, which are described elsewhere, as well as a number of interactive webtutorials which you can find here.
These online tutorials are available for anyone to browse, but we know from years of experience teaching computational biology and chemistry courses at the CMBI that doing carefully designed exercises with an experienced instructor close at hand is the best way to learn.
While you are doing the tutorials, you are welcome to contact the instructors by e-mail to ask questions, sort out problems, or to ask for hints on completing any troublesome exercises. And of course, we welcome suggestions for improvements!

CRI-MAP: Linkage Analysis Program
- Access to: CRI-MAP.
CRI-MAP is Dr Phil Green's genetic linkage analysis package. By using a few sample datasets, you will be shown how to format your data, how to process them using CRI-MAP, and how to interpret the results.
