Hi! I'm Tommy Tang

12 websites to learn computation and many others!


Hello Bioinformatics lovers,

Tommy here. I am visiting China this month, but I still want to share some resources for you to learn computation.

When I started learning bioinformatics in the fourth year of my PhD, I was the only one on the floor. I had no one to turn to. Then...

I googled a lot and found Coursera (in 2012 when Coursera was a start-up!).

It opened a new world for me. 12 years later, I have collected many more websites for you to learn.

Here you go!

  1. coursera https://www.coursera.org/ The first website I used. I took a data science Specialization https://www.coursera.org/specializations/jhu-data-science and https://www.coursera.org/learn/bioinformatics
  2. edx https://www.edx.org/ I took this one first https://www.edx.org/professional-certificate/harvardx-data-analysis-for-life-sciences and https://www.edx.org/course/statistical-learning and recently some management classes
  3. udactiy https://www.udacity.com/ I took R courses, ggplot2,github and intro to ML
  4. udemy https://www.udemy.com/ I took several python courses there.
  5. MIT opencourseware https://ocw.mit.edu/ 1806 linear algebra and many others!
  6. harvard CS50 https://pll.harvard.edu/course/cs50-introduction-computer-science?delta=0
  7. youtube channel 3blue1brown https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYO_jab_esuFRV4b17AJtAw blow you away with Crystal clear explanations. I watched the Linear Algebra series
  8. Khan academy https://www.khanacademy.org/
  9. free code camp https://www.freecodecamp.org/
  10. Josh Starmer’s Statquest for machine learning. The best ever https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtYLUTtgS3k1Fg4y5tAhLbw
  11. EBML-EBI training https://www.ebi.ac.uk/training/online/ bioinformatics courses
  12. skillup https://www.simplilearn.com/skillup-free-online-courses
