Announces
Three-Day Workshop
on
"Bioinformatics: Sequence Analysis"
21 - 23 September 2012
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Bioinformatics has initiated a new revolution in life science research
by providing computational solutions to biological problems. Availability
of huge amount of biological data has tremendously enhanced the
speed of biological research and dramatically reduced the cost of research.
The Inherent traits of an organism are hidden and assembled in the
form of a genome. Analyzing this hidden information is a challenge
in front of researcher. Bioinformatics provides the platform to study
various aspects of biological sequences using information
technology. This workshop focuses on the tools and techniques that
are being used to decipher and analyze biological sequences.
The workshop will feature morning lectures, demonstrations with
evening hands-on session in Bioinformatics lab.
