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.

Bioinformatics related group

Rahul Agarwal — Sun, 09 Feb 2020 03:17:16 -0600

FaBI emerged from the respective groups of the four founding societies GI (German Informatics Society), DECHEMA (Society for Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology), GBM (Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology) and GDCh (German Chemical Society). In fall 2015, the GMDS (German Society for Medical Informatics, Biometry, and Epidemiology) joined FaBI. FaBI represents more than 750 members today and considers itself as a joint representation of interests of bioinformatics research in Germany and as an interlocutor for politics, economy, and society aiming at a strong informatics-based life science research.

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.

Cancer's origins revealed

Jitendra Narayan — Thu, 15 Aug 2013 13:06:56 -0500

Researchers have provided the first comprehensive compendium of mutational processes that drive tumour development. Together, these mutational processes explain most mutations found in 30 of the most common cancer types. This new understanding of cancer development could help to treat and prevent a wide-range of cancers.

Computer Theory & Genetics: George Chao at TEDxUMNSalon

Thu, 15 Aug 2013 22:08:10 -0500

George Chao is an undergraduate senior studying Genetics and Computer Science at the University of Minnesota. Having started genetics research as soon as he entered the university, he has worked in labs spanning multiple disciplines as well as in Japan. Some of these researches include developmental genetics in Drosophila, computational techniques for analyzing protein interactions, and helping with the development of algorithms to analyze motion capture data of patients with neck pain. During this time, George steadily developed a fascination with the field of bioinformatics, the study of using computational techniques to learn from genetic data. He would like to go into a career of research into the application of bioinformatics in various fields. ---- The individuals involved with TEDxUMN have a passion for bringing together the great thinkers at the University of Minnesota and giving them the opportunity to share their ideas worth spreading and to discuss our shared future. We provide these great people the opportunity to share these ideas on a global stage and with an incredibly diverse audience. We believe in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and ultimately the world. Check out TEDxUMN at http://www.TEDxUMN.com/ In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Bioinformatics in Thailand !

Shruti Paniwala — Wed, 28 Apr 2021 02:04:56 -0500

Our international PhD and master programs are designed for students who desire focused training in the elements of biology, computer science, and information technology needed for a successful career in the exciting new discipline of Bioinformatics & Systems Biology. Students in our program will receive comprehensive training in omics analysis, database design and management, software engineering and programming (including web-based development), simulation techniques and modeling, and data integration. Each student will apply their skills to a practical project, where they will design and implement a solution to a real-world problem under the guidance of an experienced mentor in industry or academia.
