Bioinformatician needs ten heads !!!

Jitendra Narayan — Sat, 17 Aug 2013 10:30:45 -0500

Bioinformatics demands more and ... lots more knowledge. In this case Ravan, a mythological character from the Ramayan, can only be a real bioinformatician. :) :P

Best practices in bioinformatics training for life scientists

Jitendra Narayan — Tue, 13 Aug 2013 15:47:34 -0500

Among life scientists, from clinicians to environmental researchers, a common theme is the need not just to use, and gain familiarity with, bioinformatics tools and resources but also to understand their underlying fundamental theoretical and practical concepts.

Machine learning training and courses in bioinformatics !

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 31 Dec 2019 19:33:07 -0600

Machine learning techniques have been successful in analyzing biological data because of their capabilities in handling randomness and uncertainty of data noise and in generalization. In this class, we will learn basics about probabilistic models and machine learning techniques. We will focus on probabilistic models (Markov models, Hidden Markov models, and Bayesian networks) for biological sequence analysis and systems biology. Other machine learning techniques, such as Naive bayes, neural networks and SVMs will only be covered briefly.

Clinical Genomics & Informatics Europe at Lisbon, Portugal

Wed, 14 Aug 2013 09:58:34 -0500

Bio-IT World and Cambridge Healthtech Institute's fifth international Clinical Genomics & Informatics Europe conference will feature four main tracks on Clinical Exome Sequencing, High Scale Computing, Genome Informatics, and RNA-Seq and Transcriptome Analysis, as well as two pre-conference symposia on Clinical Epigenetics and Quantitative Digital Detection Technologies. The conference will tackle the huge amounts of sequencing data produced by new technologies that have introduced significant challenges for bioinformatics, both in terms of the analysis and interpretation of data and clinical implementation of novel variants. Members of the international community will come together to look at the science and informatics required to utilize next generation sequencing for the molecular diagnosis of complex diseases.
