MOLECULAR BIOLOGY INFORMATION RESOURCE

我们建议建立分子生物学信息资源(MBIR)， 德克萨斯医疗中心(TMC)地区的地区资源，这将 提供对科学数据库的便捷、经济高效的访问和 与资源参与者相关联的软件工具。 该资源将以下列形式向参与者提供服务 在分布式处理器(工作站)上使用的专用软件， 定制编程、访问中央数据库和专门的 设备。资源工作人员将编写文件和手册，并 将举办讲习班，培训用户有效利用资源。这个 资源员工将不断开发新的能力 响应分子生物学不断变化的性质的系统 研究。 MBIR的长期目标是建立一个研究支持系统 它将随着两台计算机的发展而不断发展 技术和分子生物学，这将提供最先进的 向资源用户提供计算机工具和教育。是否可以使用 这一资源预计将对开展 在我们的研究界进行分子生物学研究。

We propose to establish the Molecular biology Information Resource (MBIR), a regional resource for the Texas Medical Center (TMC) area, which will provide convenient and cost-efficient access to scientific databases and associated software tools to the resource participants. The resource will provide services to the participants in the form of specialized software for use on distributed processors (workstations), customized programming, access to centralized databases and specialized equipment. The resource staff will prepare documentation and manuals and will conduct workshops to train users to efficiently use the resource. The resource staff will be continually developing new capabilities of the system in response to the constantly changing nature of molecular biology research. The long-term goal of the MBIR is to establish a research support system that will continually evolve in response to developments in both computer technology and molecular biology, and that will provide state-of-the-art computer tools and education to the resource users. The availability of this resource is expected to have a significant impact on the conduct of molecular biology research in our research community.
