Description |
|
This twelfth Wellcome Trust Scientific Conferences/Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory conference on Genome Informatics will focus on large-scale genome informatics. Biology is an experimental science that is experiencing an explosion of new data. This requires biologists to increase the scale and sophistication of the information technology used for their research. The conference scope encompasses the management and the analysis of these data, such as whole genome comparisons within and among species and strains, the analysis of results from high throughput experiments to uncover cellular pathways and molecular interactions, and the design of effective algorithms.
