Bioinformatics in Genomics


Bioinformatics the science of collecting and analyzing complex biological data such as genetic codes. Molecular medicine requires the integration and analysis of genomic, molecular, cellular, as well as clinical data and it thus offers a remarkable set of challenges to bioinformatics. Bioinformatics nowadays has an essential role both, in deciphering genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic data generated by highthroughput experimental technologies, and in organizing information gathered from traditional biology and medicine. Research Centers for Bioinformatics are: National Centers for Biomedical Computing,  National Center for Simulation of Biological Structures, National Center for the Multiscale Analysis of Genomic and Cellular Networks, National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NA MIC), National Center for Biomedical Ontology (NCBO) at Stanford University, Integrate Data for Analysis, Anonymization, and Sharing (IDASH) at the University of California, San Diego. The Canadian government is also ponying up cash for omics research, with the Canada Foundation for Innovation backing several projects as part of a C 30.4 USD million (27.6 USD million) investment in academic research. McGill University scooped the joint-biggest award for a project, C400,000 USD, to advance its single-cell genomics infrastructure.
