Bioinformatics & Cancer Informatics

Explosive growth of biological information has resulted from many advances in the field of molecular biology and sophisticated techniques and equipment used to carry out rapid genome sequencing. These advances have enabled improvement in biological research and clinical medicine. For example, scientists are able to find cures for some hereditary or acquired diseases and cancers by viewing or analyzing genes directly related to them. Through the use of computational tools and methods, scientists can observe the molecular basis of a disease. Drugs can then be designed that target those genes which are diseased.

With the ever-increasing volume of information generated for curing or treating diseases and cancers, computer-based storage, processing, and dissemination is needed to turn this data deluge into meaningful biological knowledge. Leading experts from industry, government, and healthcare organizations will present compelling talks and best practice examples on annotation, storage, analysis, and search/retrieval of nucleic acid sequence, protein sequence, and structural information. Lectures and panel discussions will be framed around content, analysis software and services, IT infrastructure and other services.
