BIOMEDIN 173A: Foundations of Computational Human Genomics (CS 173A, DBIO 173A)

(Only one of 173A or 273A counts toward any CS degree program.) A coder's primer to Computational Biology through the most amazing "source code" known: your genome. Examine the major forces of genome "code development" - positive, negative and neutral selection. Learn about genome sequencing (discovering your source code from fragments); genome content: variables (genes), control-flow (gene regulation), run-time stacks (epigenomics) and memory leaks (repeats); personalized genomics and genetic disease (code bugs); genome editing (code injection); ultra conservation (unsolved mysteries) and code modifications behind amazing animal adaptations. Course includes primers on molecular biology and text processing. Prerequisites: comfortable coding in Python from the command line.

BIOMEDIN 202: BIOMEDICAL DATA SCIENCE (BIODS 202, BIOMEDIN 202P)

This course introduces the data modalities and methods valuable to ask and answer probing and novel questions that advance biomedicine. You will get exposure to a variety of current data types from imaging and omics to patient-centric and digital health generated data types. You will also be exposed to the core methodological concepts useful to analyze these data in isolation or in combination. Specifically, in four separate modules taught by expert faculty in each area the basic principles of each module will be defined and explained. Module 1, Clinical Data and Systems, will explain the basics of Electronic Health Records, and how they operate in health care settings. Next, Module 2, Image Data Health Science, will focus on an introduction to the main imaging modalities in medicine and how methodological analysis using machine vision can be used on large studies. Module 3 will focus on fusing different data streams such as clinical, imaging, molecular and other data modalities. Finally, Module 4 will focus on reproducibility, evaluation and ethical issues when deploying models based on biomedical data, with emphasis on translation to practice. Emphasis will be placed questions, data and methods that advance health and medicine. Primary learning goals for this course include how to frame biomedical health questions, what data are needed to answer those questions, and what methodological constructs can be leveraged to probe and answer those questions. This course is a newly designed course for the PhD program of the Department of Biomedical Data Science but open to all. NOTE: For students in the Department of Biomedical Data Science Program, this core course MUST be taken as a letter grade only.

BIOMEDIN 360: Inclusive Mentorship in Data Science (BIODS 360)

This course has the following broad goals: (1) To ensure that Stanford graduate students in data science are intentionally trained to effectively mentor people who may be different from them. (2) To sustainably develop pathways to increase access to higher education and to Stanford graduate programs in data science for individuals from backgrounds currently under-represented in those fields. During weekly class meetings, graduate student participants will learn strategies to create an inclusive environment, approaches to effective mentoring and coaching, and techniques to develop a personalized curriculum with the course staff and guest speakers. They will also be paired with current undergraduates from non-R1 schools with an interest in data science, recruited in partnership with faculty from those institutions. Participants will meet online weekly for one-on-one mentorship where you will expose your mentee to research in data science. During weekly online meetings, you will work with your mentee on a range of activities, planned with assistance from course staff, including planning their course of studies, navigating internship opportunities and preparing applications; tutoring in some aspects of data science; and guidance in engaging in mini-research projects, depending on their interests.
