For this assignment, you need to write a paper (min 3 pages or longer) that is on any topic related to bioinformatics, computational biology, systems biology, biomedical engineering, etc. The paper has to have original material and cannot be copied. You cannot copy text and cannot copy figures. If you are seen copying text or figures from other papers, you will be penalized. Instead your paper should have figures showing a protein’s primary structure (protein sequence), secondary structure (3D ribbon diagram showing motifs like alpha helixes and beta strands of a protein sequence folded into a 3D structure), and tertiary structure (3D space fill model showing all the atoms of the 3D protein shape and structure). The paper has to be structured like a conference or journal paper. You can use a sample Springer or IEEE conference paper template (but that is not necessary). It has to have a structure like Title, Authors, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Methodology, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, Acknowledgements, References.
