Read on Hacker News…h this class. That said, I am enjoying it immensely. The book we use is a good overview of the subject - http://www.amazon.com/Bioinformatics-Molecular-Evolution-Pau... -Bioinformatics and Molecular Evolution. Most of the tools that bioinformaticians use are buggy, horribly designed and very unfriendly to the average user. One way to get involved is just improving the usability and stability of the tools. There are plenty of command line tools that you can add a GUI to if that is your thing: http://bio-bwa.sourceforge.net/ http://abacus.gene.ucl.ac.uk/software/paml.html http://samtools.sourceforge.net/ You don't need to know too much to contribute. If you are in Utah and interested I could get you some contacts with professors.
