Description: There is a broad consensus that cancer is the result of somatic cells having serially...
Broad area of research:
Genome Annotation and Functional Genomics
Bergman Lab is actively engaged in the development and application of computational methods to improve the annotation of functional biological features in genome sequences....
The premise of Assassin's Creed is the reliving of other people's memories stored inside DNA. Well scientists have found that in mice, it actually happens! Anthony is joined by special guest and our friend Tara Long from Hard Science to explain how...
NCB is offering M.Phil and Ph.D programs in the area of Bioinformatics. The major goal of NCB is to promote quality training and research in the area of Bioinformatics. Bioinformatics originated as a cross-disciplinary field as the need for...
The Molecular Basis of Vertebrate Evolution. Naturally occurring species show spectacular differences in morphology, physiology, behavior, disease susceptibility, and life span. Although the genomes of many organisms have now been completely...
Interested in understanding the evolution of life. To obtain glimpses of such understanding, we employ existing and new methods of computational biology to perform research in several major...
My main topics of interest are:
The impact of non tree-like evolution such as horizontal gene transfers and hybridization on species biology
Evolution and adaptation of animals in the absence of sexual reproduction and the underlying...
Welcome to the Rennison lab in the School of Biological Sciences at the University of California San Diego. We are a group interested in the evolution and maintenance of biodiversity. We study the processes related to biodiversity using methods from...
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - Mulan: Multiple-sequence local alignment and visualization for studying function and evolution
Mulan (http://mulan.dcode.org/), a novel method and a network server for comparing multiple draft and finished-quality sequences to identify functional...
The Rogers lab studies evolution of genome structure. We explore the ways that complex mutations like duplications, deletions, rearrangements, and retrogenes can create new genetic material. We study how these new mutations are important for...
