Genomes and Machines

More from the Scout report: this time on bioinformatics.

The purpose of these pages is to provide an overview of the rapidly evolving field of bioinformatics. We define bioinformatics as a discipline that generate computational tools, databases and methods to support genomic, molecular and medical research. This research basically comprises the study of DNA structure and function, gene and protein expression, protein production, structure and function, genetic regulatory systems, etc.

In this page you will find links to the most representative genomic databases and tools, tutorials, data and software providers, public and private research centres, relevant paper references, reviews on articles and products, etc.
