	<title><![CDATA[Bioinformatics software for biologists in the genomics era]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>The genome sequencing revolution is approaching a landmark figure of 1000 completely sequenced genomes. Coupled with fast-declining, per-base sequencing costs, this influx of DNA sequence data has encouraged laboratory scientists to engage large datasets in comparative sequence analyses for making evolutionary, functional and translational inferences. However, the majority of the scientists at the forefront of experimental research are not bioinformaticians, so a gap exists between the user-friendly software needed and the scripting/programming infrastructure often employed for the analysis of large numbers of genes, long genomic segments and groups of sequences. We see an urgent need for the expansion of the fundamental paradigms under which biologist-friendly software tools are designed and developed to fulfill the needs of biologists to analyze large datasets by using sophisticated computational methods. We argue that the design principles need to be sensitive to the reality that comparatively small teams of biologists have historically developed some of the most popular biological software packages in molecular evolutionary analysis. Furthermore, biological intuitiveness and investigator empowerment need to take precedence over the current supposition that biologists should re-tool and become programmers when analyzing genome scale datasets.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/23/14/1713.full" rel="nofollow">http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/23/14/1713.full</a></p>]]></description>

<p>Infectious disease control needs to be made more “sustainable”. We need to reduce selective pressure on pathogens to evolve antibiotic resistance. We need to control infectious disease outbreaks and associated immune disorders with a better understanding of the genetic,  environmental and social factors that impact disease spread and severity.</p>

<p>Research Area</p>

<p>Investigating the role in disease of both the microbe and its host (i.e immune system failure), using genomics and systems biology-based approaches<br />Using genomics and network analysis to characterize disease outbreaks and their environmental/social/genetic causes, and<br />Identifying new anti-infective and immune modulating therapies/biomarkers.</p>
