This action funds an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biological Informatics for FY2001. The fellowship supports research and training at the postdoctoral level at the intersection of biology and the informational, computational, mathematical, and statistical sciences. The goal of the fellowship is to provide training to a young scientist in preparation for a career in biological informatics in which research and education will be integrated. There is an increasing need for training in biological informatics at all occupational levels, and it is expected that Fellows trained through these fellowships will play important roles in training of the future workforce.The research and training plan for this fellowship is entitled "Development of alternative clustering methods for genomic expression analysis and characterization of coregulated genes in yeast." This project is developing fuzzy k-means clustering for analysis of genomic expression data, with the goal of identifying coregulated yeast genes that are not identified by traditional methods. After identifying sets of coregulated genes, multiple algorithms will be applied to identify sequence motifs that contribute to the regulation of expression.

这一行动为NSF 2001财年生物信息学博士后研究奖学金提供了资金。该奖学金支持生物学与信息科学、计算科学、数学科学和统计科学交叉的博士后水平的研究和培训。该研究金的目标是为一名年轻科学家提供培训，以便为从事生物信息学研究和教育相结合的职业做准备。生物信息学在各个职业层面的培训需求越来越大，预计通过这些奖学金培训的研究员将在未来的劳动力培训中发挥重要作用。该奖学金的研究和培训计划题为“为酵母中共调控基因的基因组表达分析和表征开发替代的聚类方法”。该项目正在开发用于基因组表达数据分析的模糊k-均值聚类，目的是识别传统方法未识别的共调控酵母基因。在确定了几组共调控基因后，将应用多种算法来识别有助于表达调控的序列基序。
