INBRE: BIOINFORMATICS CORE

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其它NIH来源。 列出的子项目总成本可能 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 而不是由NCRR赠款提供给子项目或子项目工作人员的直接资金。 SC INBRE的生物信息学核心在该计划的过程中从一个纯粹的培训和研讨会/专题讨论会组织的教育结构演变为一个全面的核心，提供生物信息学服务，支持生物信息学试点项目，生物信息学本科生培训，同时继续组织讲习班和专题讨论会，将所有对南卡罗来纳州生物信息学感兴趣的科学家聚集在一起。构成这一核心的“支柱”提供全面的服务访问所有平台的微阵列技术，包括Affyoung平台和斑点阵列，主要来自安捷伦科技.核心提供夏季本科生研究培训的机会，并组织了三个全州范围内的研讨会，致力于生物信息学。在之前的INBRE中，核心为来自整个网络的学生提供了一个种子资助计划，用于使用微阵列技术的实验。共收到38份申请，其中7份来自PUI学生/教师团队，8份来自本科生。六个提案得到了资助，其中两个来自本科生，其中一个来自PUI。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. SC INBRE's Bioinformatics Core evolved during the course of the program from a purely educational structure for training and workshop/symposia organization, to a comprehensive core that provides bioinformatics services, support for pilot projects in bioinformatics, undergraduate student training in bioinformatics, while continuing the organization of workshops and symposia that bring together all scientists interested in Bioinformatics in SC. The core facilities that constitute the "pillars" of this core provide full service access to all platforms of microarray technology, including the Affymetrix platform and spotted arrays, primarily from Agilent Technologies. The Core provided Summer Undergraduate Research Training opportunities, and organized three statewide Symposia dedicated to Bioinformatics. In the prior INBRE, the Core piloted a seed grant program for students from the entire network for experiments that used microarray technology. Thirty eight applications were received, of which seven were from PUI student/faculty teams, and eight in total from undergraduate students. Six proposals were funded, including two from undergraduate students, one of which at a PUI.
