Biomedical Databases (Protected)
Hey! Welcome to my notes for the Biomedical Databases course where biology meets data engineering.
Course Overview
Important Heads-Up
The exam may be split into two sessions based on the modules. The first module is all about biological databases, so pay extra attention for right preparing.

About the CMU Course
This is one of the best database courses available online, taught by Andy Pavlo at Carnegie Mellon University. It's more advanced and assumes some C++ knowledge, but the explanations are incredibly clear.
The CMU course covers database internals, query optimization, storage systems, and transaction management at a much deeper level. It's perfect if you're curious about how databases actually work under the hood.
