In this 1-hour long project-based course, you will learn how to access, parse, and visualize data from various bioinformatics sequence and structural online databases such as ENTREZ, PDB, KEGG and NCBI using Biopython.
You will also interact with various bioinformatics file formats such as FASTA, PDB, GENBANK and XML along with various parsers to read and modify these files using Biopython. Note: This course works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions.

I have learned something additional and valuable apart from my curriculum

While the walkthrough of how to use Bio[ython was very informative, I wished that the quiz was more in depth on reusing the programs that were just written.
RG
Excellent quick intro that would get you started if you've an interest in the subject!
MD
Great, thanks alot. I really enjoyed the project. I can use and expand my knowledge using this codes on my own.
DW
Such a fascinating topic and so well taught! Bravo! I applaud the instructor for his hard work and excellent teaching.
MN
great explanation and good project for a beginner; but the terminal cant run the code some time or takes too long to execute the code
SB
Gives a good understanding of different bioinformatics tools using the Python biopython package. This knowledge works as a very good foundation for someone willing to gain deep knowledge in the field.

I didn't get the certificate with my name
Overall, the course is a good start. It is easy to understand and follow, provided you have some knowledge of the subject. You can definitely build on this project for your portfolio. I gave only 4 stars because the discussion forum was not as active. I haven't received any responses for my queries till date.
I don't know it's just me or something. But the system is hyper hard to use and the lag is just so huge. It's a good project though. Maybe just because I am not in the US so that I cannot get a good experience.
