MHP 102
Professor Waterman, USC Associates Chair in Natural Sciences and Professor of Biological Sciences, Computer Science and Mathematics, researches molecular sequence data using computational approaches. His work concentrates on the creation and application of mathematics, statistics and computer science to molecular biology, particularly to DNA, RNA, and protein sequence data. Professor Waterman is the co-developer of the Smith-Waterman algorithm for sequence comparison and of the Lander-Waterman formulas for physical mapping and sequencing.
Professor Waterman has told me the lecture part will be brief, so expect a lively discussion.
Should be fun
See You There!
