PARTNER FOR BIOMED RES IN ARKANSAS: BIOINFORMATICS CORE

这个子项目是许多利用 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 生物信息学核心的一个中心目标是建立一个具有生物信息学专业知识的教师和支持人员的临界质量，并促进他们的沟通和互动，以满足该州发展中研究界的需求。 目标1： 新教师 通过招募新的教师和提高UALR，UAMS和UAF现有生物信息学教师的能力，建立一个具有生物信息学专业知识的核心研究小组。 UAMS、UALR和UAF的现有研究项目正在使用生成大量需要专家管理的数据的技术。因此，在阿肯色州系统的大学最大的需求之一是建立一组研究人员和支持人员在生物信息学领域的具体重点。 目标二： Access Grid 在UALR，UAMS和UAF的教师之间建立有效的通信网络，通过访问网格工作室通过高速互联网连接2。 访问网格工作室已经在UALR、UAF、UAMS和阿肯色州州立大学建立。 目标三： 生物信息学教育 在BRIN的指导下，UALR和UAMS合作为整个阿肯色州的学院和大学的本科生和研究生创造生物信息学领域的教育和研究机会，开发UALR的本科课程，并在UALR和UAMS之间建立生物信息学联合研究生课程。 BRIN生物信息学核心的一个非常重要的使命是合作为整个阿肯色州的本科生和研究生提供教育机会。目前吸引生物技术产业到阿肯色州的努力使我们的学生在计算生物学的教育成为一个优先事项。

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. A central goal of the Bioinformatics Core is to create a critical mass of faculty and support staff with expertise in bioinformatics and to facilitate their communication and interaction to meet the needs of the developing research community in the state. Objective 1: New Faculty Establish a core group of researchers with expertise in bioinformatics by recruiting new faculty and enhancing the capabilities of existing bioinformatics faculty at UALR, UAMS, and UAF. Existing research programs at UAMS, UALR, and UAF are using techniques that generate large amounts of data requiring expert management. Consequently, one of the greatest needs within the University of Arkansas System is to build a group of researchers and support staff with a specific focus in the field of bioinformatics. Objective 2: Access Grid Establish an effective communication network among the faculty at UALR, UAMS, and UAF through Access Grid studios connected via the high-speed Internet2. Access Grid studios have been established at UALR, UAF, UAMS and Arkansas State University. Objective 3: Bioinformatics Education Under the guidance of the BRIN UALR and UAMS have partnered to create educational and research opportunities in the field of bioinformatics for undergraduate and graduate students in colleges and universities throughout Arkansas with the development of undergraduate courses at UALR and a joint graduate program between UALR and UAMS in bioinformatics. A very important mission of the BRIN Bioinformatics Core is to cooperate in the development of educational opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students throughout Arkansas. Current efforts to attract biotechnology industries to Arkansas makes the education of our students in computational biology a priority.
