DEPARTMENT OF GENETICS, GENOMICS AND BIOINFORMATICS, National Biotechnology Development Agency, Nigeria

BioStar — Wed, 05 Sep 2018 10:48:25 -0500

The Genetics, Genomics & Bioinformatics Department (GBBD) at NABDA is unique, encompassing all facets of modern genetics and bioinformatics research. Trans-disciplinary research being conducted in our laboratories would lead to cures for human diseases; improvements to crop and livestock quality and yield; creation of new technologies with applications to medicine; agriculture; environment; and industry.

Our capacity building activities covers both general and specialized topics in translational genetics, and is designed to better acquaint scientists and clinicians with the tools and technologies of genetics and genomics.

OUR RESEARCH ACTIVITIES INCLUDE:

Biomedical Genetics: investigating genetic and environmental factors contributing to phenotypes with relevance to human health and disease.
Computation and Bioinformatics: develop new approaches for the management, analysis, and modelling of large, complex data sets.
Population and Quantitative Genetics: study of how genetic processes evolve to generate genetic variation in populations of organisms, and the effects on the patterning of variation within and between populations and specie, and
Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology: focuses on the research and innovation for industrial enzymes, biologics and biosimilars production.

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.

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.
