Bioinformatics Core

OK-INBRE生物信息学核心-摘要 生物医学研究已经发展成为一个越来越多的技术驱动的奋进，像社会的其他部分， 数据分析、存档和检索已严重依赖于计算工具和方法。 随着NIH进入大数据时代，这一点尤其如此。OK-INBRE生物信息学核心将支持 这是俄克拉荷马州内的持续发展，并将与新成立的OK-INBRE合作 Proteomics Core提供领先的服务和教育机会。我们将加强研究 专业知识和基础设施，提供最先进的生物信息学支持和获得强大的分析 和搜索工具给俄克拉荷马州的调查人员。在目前的资助期间，我们提供了 为该州50多名研究人员提供生物信息学研究支持，丰富了许多科学学科 包括癌症生物学、细胞和发育生物学以及传染病等。这种广度 科学领域，可以受益于生物信息学分析工具，通过我们的核心证明了广泛的- 生物信息学的广泛力量推动多学科生物医学研究。我们的目标是继续 有效的支持，特别是通过发展研究项目计划授予的研究人员 以及全州的其他调查人员我们已经提供并将继续提供和扩大 为许多OK-INBRE网络机构开展生物信息学教育推广活动， 课程作业和动手计算实验室和活动。这些课程丰富了教育 本科生，研究生和高中科学教师在国家的经验。 此外，这些生物信息学教育工作将促进年轻的生物医学专业人员的职业发展。 科学家在他们的培训的各个阶段，并使最先进的生物信息学工具的使用，由俄克拉荷马州 investigators.总的来说，这些努力将推进俄克拉荷马州机构的研究计划，并提高 俄克拉荷马州调查人员对地方、州和国家资金的竞争力，并增加 俄克拉荷马州的年轻生物医学研究科学家。

OK-INBRE Bioinformatics Core - Summary Biomedical research has evolved into an increasingly technology-driven endeavor and like the rest of society, has become critically dependent on computational tools and methods for data analysis, archiving and retrieval. This is particularly true as NIH moves into the era of Big Data. The OK-INBRE Bioinformatics Core will support this continuing evolution within the state of Oklahoma, and will partner with the newly established OK-INBRE Proteomics Core to deliver leading edge services and educational opportunities. We will heighten research expertise and infrastructure by providing state-of-the-art bioinformatics support and access to powerful analysis and search tools to investigators in Oklahoma. During the current funding period, we have provided bioinformatics research support for over 50 investigators in the state, enriching many scientific disciplines including cancer biology, cell and developmental biology, and infectious diseases, among others. This breadth of scientific areas that can benefit from bioinformatics analysis tools through our Core demonstrates the wide- ranging power of bioinformatics to advance multidisciplinary biomedical research. Our goal is to continue this effective support, particularly to investigators awarded through the Developmental Research Project Program and to other investigators throughout the state. We have provided and will continue to provide and expand bioinformatics education outreach activities for many OK-INBRE network institutions by offering didactic coursework and hands-on computing laboratories and activities. These classes have enriched the educational experiences of undergraduate students, graduate students and high school science teachers in the state. Additionally, these bioinformatics educational efforts will enhance career development of young biomedical scientists at all stages of their training, and enable the use of state-of-the-art bioinformatics tools by Oklahoma investigators. Collectively, these efforts will advance research programs at Oklahoma institutions and enhance the competitiveness of Oklahoma investigators for local, state, and national funding, and increase the pool of skilled young biomedical research scientists in Oklahoma.
