Dr. Shivas Amin calls bioinformatics a "collision of biology and computers." Students learn how to use computers and skills in math and biology to analyze genome and proteome projects to prepare for high-demand jobs in the life sciences. Learn more...
www.breedinginsight.org - Breeding Insight at Cornell University will leverage recent improvements in genomics and open source informatics components, and in partnership with small breeding programs, will enable these programs to harness powerful digital...
A large international consortium of researchers has produced the first comprehensive, detailed map of the way genes work across the major cells and tissues of the human body.
github.com - A phylogeny based comparative genomics software to analyze the genetic environment of genes. The user can select one or several taxa and provide one or several reference protein(s). Genomes and plasmids (based on user choice) will be downloaded from...
Comparative genomics is the art and science of comparing genomes—across species, within species, or even among individuals—to unravel evolutionary relationships, functional elements, and genetic adaptations. As sequencing technologies have advanced...
www.today.com - “What we really don’t know yet is whether the predictive aspects of the genome are going to turn out to be beneficial or potentially harmful”
“As we roll out genomic medicine we are fighting against this society-wide...
