Conferences in computational biology continue to provide tutorials on classical and new methods in the field. This can be taken as an indicator that education is still a bottleneck in our field's process of becoming an established scientific discipline. Bielefeld University has been one of the early providers of bioinformatics education, both locally and via the internet. The Bielefeld Bioinformatics Server (BiBiServ) offers a variety of older and new materials. Here, we report on two online courses made available recently, one introductory and one on the advanced level: (i) SADR: Sequence Analysis with Distributed Resources (http://bibiserv.techfak.uni-bielefeld.de/sadr/) and (ii) ADP: Algebraic Dynamic Programming in Bioinformatics (http://bibiserv.techfak.uni-bielefeld.de/dpcourse/).

Keywords: Bioinformatics education, online courses, sequence analysis, dynamic programming
