Great Place to Study Bioinformatics in Europe

Rahul Agarwal — Sun, 18 Aug 2013 18:41:34 -0500

Study bioinformatics is like being jack of all trade so it is important you choose where it will be good backup of computer science, and natural science infrastructure and faculty. Especially having a good teachers in computer science is indispensible.

Few places in Europe where good (and @some places no tution fees) master bioinformatics courses and recommended are:

KU Leuven, Belgium

Dumontier Lab

Sun, 14 Jul 2013 12:51:42 -0500

Our research aims to better understand how living systems respond to chemical agents. A key aspect of our approach involves using computational frameworks that are powered by formal (i.e. machine understandable) semantics to make effectively use of vast and diverse amounts of biomedical knowledge. We are particularly interested in understanding how the response to chemical exposure is modulated by genetic and physiological variation among individuals and how this translates into altered capabilities at the molecular level.

Research Area

the discovery and on-demand use of biomedical data and services
the formulation, discovery and evaluation of scientific hypotheses
the simulation of biological systems at the level of individual molecules

IBL laboratory

Mon, 12 Aug 2013 02:02:29 -0500

The IBL laboratory focuses on the multi-disciplinary analyses of the global responses of model microorganisms, cyanobacteria (mainly Synechocystis PCC6803) and yeasts (mainly Saccharomyces cerevisae) to environmental stresses triggered by oxidative agents, heavy metals, or drastic changes in nutrients availability. The genome-wide responses studied with the "omics" techniques (transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and genetics) generate a wealth of experimental data, which are processed, archived, integrated and represented as working models through bioinformatics and mathematics.
