Bioinformatics Project Summary The long-term goal of the Bioinformatics Core (BC) is to develop a robust bioinformatics infrastructure that increases the overall research productivity of Wyoming researchers, and provides career-enhancing training for Wyoming students. The primary goal of the BC during INBRE 4 is to build on successful bioinformatic programs supported by previous INBRE funding with a plan that acknowledges the state’s needs and takes into account the unique structure of its INBRE network. The BC will pursue the following three objectives to achieve this BC-specific goal, as well as the overall Specific Aims of Wyoming INBRE 4: 1. Support bioinformatics research and education at the University of Wyoming, by enhancing and extending successful INBRE 3 programs. 2. Foster statewide development of bioinformatics skills and capabilities through support for research and training at the community colleges and state entities. 3. Expand the impact of the BC’s work through engagement with regional and national INBRE programs and networks. The expected outcomes of the BC include successful collaborative bioinformatics research projects, which at the University of Wyoming will generate publications in the peer-reviewed literature, and at the community colleges will provide student exposure to bioinformatics methodologies. Bioinformatics education will continue to support the transition of research groups to being capable of independent bioinformatic analysis. Tangible resources in the form of seed grants for data generation, as well as travel grants to acquire specialized bioinformatic training, will position Wyoming investigators to compete successfully for extramural research funding. BC personnel will also contribute to a burgeoning UW undergraduate curriculum in computational biology and data science, through teaching of dedicated bioinformatics courses. Outcomes of work with state entities will include continued support in data analysis training as well as an internship program to improve workforce development. These project outcomes will have positive impact on the ability of Wyoming researchers and educators to use bioinformatic approaches in their research, and on career trajectories and workforce development for student and state entity trainees. To help achieve these objectives, we propose two improvements in BC organizational structure and staffing. The BC Director will be assisted by a new BC Associate Director, and addition of a new Bioinformatics Education and Outreach Coordinator to enhance the BC’s ability to support community college and UW faculty to add bioinformatics modules into existing courses.

生物信息学项目摘要 生物信息学核心（BC）的长期目标是开发强大的生物信息学 提高怀俄明州研究人员整体研究生产力的基础设施，以及 为怀俄明州学生提供职业提升培训。 BC 期间的主要目标 INBRE 4 将以先前 INBRE 资金支持的成功生物信息学项目为基础 制定一个承认国家需求并考虑其独特结构的计划 因布雷网络。 BC 将追求以下三个目标来实现 BC 特定目标： 以及怀俄明州 INBRE 4 的总体具体目标： 1. 支持怀俄明大学的生物信息学研究和教育，通过加强 并扩展成功的 INBRE 3 计划。 2. 通过支持促进全州生物信息学技能和能力的发展 在社区学院和国家实体进行研究和培训。 3. 通过与地区和国家 INBRE 的合作扩大 BC 工作的影响 程序和网络。 BC 的预期成果包括成功的生物信息学合作研究 怀俄明大学的项目将在同行评审中发表出版物 文学，在社区学院将为学生提供生物信息学的接触机会 方法论。生物信息学教育将继续支持研究小组的转型 能够独立进行生物信息分析。种子形式的有形资源 用于数据生成的补助金以及用于获得专门生物信息培训的旅费补助金， 将使怀俄明州的研究人员能够成功竞争校外研究经费。公元前 人员还将为华盛顿大学计算方面的本科课程做出贡献 生物学和数据科学，通过专门的生物信息学课程的教学。结果 与国家实体的合作将包括继续支持数据分析培训以及 实习计划，以改善劳动力发展。这些项目成果将产生积极影响 对怀俄明州研究人员和教育工作者使用生物信息方法的能力的影响 他们的研究，以及学生和国家实体的职业轨迹和劳动力发展 实习生。为了帮助实现这些目标，我们提出了 BC 组织的两项改进 结构和人员配置。 BC 主任将由新的 BC 副主任协助，并且 增加一名新的生物信息学教育和外展协调员，以增强 BC 的能力 支持社区学院和华盛顿大学教师将生物信息学模块添加到现有课程中。
