The latex source for the talk.
A Survey of Bioinformatics: a look at some problems in bioinformatics I find intereseting (835 KB PDF file, updated from the 1997 talk). Given as part of Dr. Janwa's Introduction to Information Theory and Bioinformatics course, February 18, 2003, UPR-RRP. Many of the source files for the illustrations were lost, Maria Mergal was kind enough to scan some old transparencies, and those are included in the PDF file. The latex source for the talk.
Linux at the HPCf: given Monday, June 9, 2003 at the Desarollo de Linux en Puerto Rico conference, San Juan Marriott Hotel. The above link is the PDF of the slides, here is the latex source to the slides.
Two talks given as part of my interview for a position in the computer science department at UPR-RRP "Bioinformatics and Computational Biology" for the undergraduate student seminar on August 18, and "Analysis Techniques for Probe-level Microarray Data" for the faculty on August 20, 2009. Latex here and here.
Clustering and reverse engineering: from genes to the metabolome. given September 18, 2009 for Dr. Nataliya Chorna's Metabolomics class in UPR-RRP. The slides were supposed to update and combine my clustering and reverse engineering talks on microarrays, but I didn't quite succeed (latex source).
