## What it is
A curated, free self-study curriculum for learning bioinformatics through MOOCs and university course materials. It lays out a multi-year path covering biology, chemistry, math, and programming foundations.

## Use cases
- teach myself bioinformatics for free
- find a structured bioinformatics learning path
- what courses do I need to become a bioinformatician
- self-study curriculum for computational biology
- free online bioinformatics courses list

## When to choose
- you want a free, structured, self-paced path into bioinformatics
- you need guidance on prerequisite science and programming courses
- you prefer MOOC-style learning from top universities

## When to avoid
- you need up-to-date course links and active maintenance
- you want interactive software or tools rather than a course guide
- you need an accredited or mentored program
