Tengo el gusto de anunciarles que mi curso de virologia esta ahora disponible en Español. Este trabajo se realizó bajo la dirección de la Dra. Susana López, virologa del Departamento de Genética del Desarrollo y Fisiología Molecular del Instituto de Biotecnología de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma...

A koan-style tutorial in Java for Neo4j. This set of Koans provides a hands-on tutorial for learning the Neo4j open source graph database. It's part of a more comprehensive tutorial often presented by the authors and other folks. The Koan idea was borrowed from the Ruby Koans which provide a number...

A new class is starting at virology blog: Virology 101. I began this blog in 2004, to give back what I’ve learned from studying viruses for 30+ years. I’ve written many posts on basic virology, but they tend to disappear with time. To remedy this problem, I’ve collected all these posts with links...

Soon after the new influenza H1N1 strain emerged in April 2009, I began a series of blog posts on basic aspects of influenza virus replication and pathogenesis. The goal of this series is to provide information that will allow everyone to better understand the events surrounding emergence and spread...

The Koans walk you along the path to enlightenment in order to learn Ruby. The goal is to learn the Ruby language, syntax, structure, and some common functions and libraries. We also teach you culture. Testing is not just something we pay lip service to, but something we live. It is essential in your...

Methods used for the study of viruses Viral growth * Multiplicity of Infection * Influenza virus growth in eggs Viral detection * Influenza hemagglutination inhibition assay * Influenza microneutralization assay * Detecting viruses: the plaque assay * Measurement of viruses by end-point dilution...

This Columbia University virology course is offered each year in the spring semester. The basic thesis of the course is that all viruses adopt a common strategy. The strategy is simple: 1. Viral genomes are contained in metastable particles. 2. Genomes encode gene products that promote an infectious...

RailsCasts is produced by Ryan Bates (rbates on Twitter and ryanb on GitHub). A free episode will be released on the first Monday of each month featuring tips and tricks with Ruby on Rails. The screencasts are short and focus on one technique so you can quickly move on to applying it to your own project...

This 10-installment email course and newsletter delivers the techniques and strategies you need to know when marketing art online. Here’s what...

This tutorial will look at how deep learning methods can be applied to problems in computer vision, most notably object recognition. It will start by motivating the need to learn features, rather than hand-craft them. It will then introduce several basic architectures, explaining how they learn features...

Welcome to the world’s first online course in science journalism, developed by the World Federation of Science Journalists in close cooperation with the Science and Development Network SciDev.Net. The course is ready for use by professional journalists, journalism students and teachers. Each course consist...

This course is designed to provide participants with an overall understanding of how sex and gender impact function of select organ systems as well as disease progression and treatment options.

This course is designed to give the student a basic scientific understanding of the major physiological differences between the sexes, the influences these differences have on illness and health outcomes, and the implications for policy, medical research, and health care.

This second module, entitled Sex and Gender Differences in Health and Behavior, applies the basic concepts presented in the first course to specific conditions and organ systems where sex and gender differences play a significant role.

Bienvenue au premier cours en ligne sur le journalisme scientifique conçu par la Fédération Mondiale des Journalistes Scientifiques avec la participation de Scidev.net. Ce cours gratuit est destiné aux journalistes professionnels, aux étudiants en journalisme et aux professeurs. Chaque chapitre inclut...

Developing high quality distributed systems software is hard; developing high quality reusable distributed systems software is even harder. The principles, methods, and skills required to develop reusable software cannot be learned by generalities. Instead, developers must learn through experience how...

Lectures from the NYU Course on Deep Learning (Spring 2014) This is a graduate course on deep learning, one of the hottest topics in machine learning and AI at the moment. In the last two or three years, Deep learning has revolutionized speech recognition and image recognition. Deep learning is...
