Genome Analysis and Systems Modeling Group

One of our primary goals is to design, implement, and provide practical computational tools for the analysis and annotation of genomes. The group is working on developing state-of-the-art tools for genomic analysis including gene finding, with a special focus on systems for retrieval, assembly, analysis, and annotation of the ever-increasing DNA sequence data that is being generated by sequencing centers around the world.

Another goal is to provide information required for advances in biological research by developing an underlying data and computer system infrastructure that supports improved access to:

• biological information resulting from research and analysis;
• biological data and information needed for research and analysis; and
• biological, bioinformatics, and computational resources and tools.
