BIOINFORMATICS LAB (CSBL) |
|
|
|
The CSBL is a core
computational unit housing the most widely used bioinformatics suits in
the world. It is equipped to conduct research in various scientific
fields, combining theory from biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics,
and computer science with a truely multidisciplinary approach to
biological and pharmaceutical research. The lab receives students from
the faculties of Medicine, Engineering, and Arts & Sciences, and hosts
training sessions and workshops.

The Bioinformatics Research and Applications
Team (BRAT) joins professors from the faculties of Medicine, Math &
Computer Sciences, Arts and Sciences, and Engineering. The objective
of the BRAT is to explore the use and development of bioinformatics
tools, particularly those relevant to the niche of local research
projects. Learn more... |

WHAT IS
BIOINFORMATICS? |
|
|
|
Bioinformatics or computational biology is the use of mathematical and
informational techniques, including statistics, to solve biological
problems, usually by creating or using computer programs, mathematical
models or both. One of the main areas of bioinformatics is the data
mining and analysis of the data gathered by the various genome projects.
Other areas are sequence alignment, protein structure prediction,
systems biology, protein-protein interactions, etc...
