SD BRIN: BIOINFORMATICS CORE LIBRARY

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。生物信息学核心的一个组成部分是加强图书馆向网络成员提供的信息服务。美国医学院洛门图书馆通过提供这些文献和数据库访问发挥了主要作用。在BRIN的资助下，通过安装三个工作站，包括两台戴尔电脑、一台惠普彩色激光打印机、一台惠普b&w打印机和一台富士通彩色扫描仪，文档传递能力得到了改善。这允许使用Docline和Internet Ariel软件更快速地检索和交付文章。支持科学期刊的在线数据库对美国大学和合作本科院校的教师和学生都是至关重要的。生物信息学与计算机科学的合作正在增长，他们的研究重点基本上是围绕与生物医学科学相关的数据管理问题设计的。计算机科学家正在设计和支持分析蛋白质组学和基因组学结果所需的硬件和软件。SD校董会批准了一个新的计算科学和统计学博士项目，重点是生物信息学，将于2005年秋季开始开设两个新的计算机科学教授职位（其中一个也是由BRIN赞助的生物信息学）。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. One component of the bioinformatics core is enhancing the library information services available to network members. The USD School of Medicine Lommen Library plays a primary role by providing this literature and database access. Document delivery capability has been improved with BRIN funding by the installation of three workstations housing two Dell computers, one HP color laser printer, one HP b&w printer, and one Fujitsu color scanner. This allows more rapid retrieval and delivery of articles using Docline and Internet Ariel software. Support for online databases of scientific journals has been essential to both faculty and students at USD and at the partner undergraduate instituions. The bioinformatics collaboration with computer science is growing and their research emphasis is basically designed around data management issues relevant to the biomedical sciences. Computer scientists are designing and supporting the hardware and software needed to analyze proteomics and genomics results. A new PhD program in Computational Sciences and Statistics with a developing emphasis on bioinformatics has been approved by the SD Board of Regents to begin in fall 2005 with two new faculty positions for computer science (one also sponsored by BRIN in bioinformatics).
