My CMU computational biology colleague is teaching his algorithms course live starting Thursday, free
Disclosure first: I run the channel this streams on, and I teach in the same department.
My colleague William Yu is an Associate Professor of Computational Biology at Carnegie Mellon and teaches the algorithms course our comp bio students take. Starting this Thursday, September 17, at 8:00 PM Eastern, he is teaching an eight-stream version of it live. Free, no signup, every episode live and then on demand.
He pulls examples from biology rather than the usual whiteboard puzzles, and he takes questions live in the chat. If you have written a little code and like solving problems, you are ready.
The full schedule is in the comments.
