[BioEdu] Distance Learning Bioinformatics Couses

[Bracco Stefano]

Dear All,

I was interested to know if there is any distance learning course to
obtain a graduate/undergraduate degree in Bioinformatics.
The main problem is that a lot of students seems to be interested to
this field, but what is difficult, is to give them the possibility to
work in our labs and to focus on bio-informatics matters. In the Local
university we do not have a program for Bioinformatics and there is a
growing interest in this field.
If someone has any suggestion, could be really helpful.
By the way, many of the people that would interested to partecipate
already have a bachelor in biology or CS so it is difficult to manage
heterogeneous backgrounds into one single course.

Thanks a lot for your suggestions!
