In addition to programs geared towards transforming biologists into bioinformaticians, students need more raw material available for their education.

MinION achieved the longest reads of DNA sequences to date. 

The use of underperforming computational tools is a major offender in science’s reproducibility crisis—and there’s growing momentum to avoid it.

Three methods identify and activate silent bacterial gene clusters to uncover new drugs

A point-and-click interface alternative to command-line tools that allows researchers to easily create, run, and troubleshoot serial sequence analyses

In today’s data-heavy research environment, wet-lab scientists can benefit from new computational skills.

Paul Joyce, dean of the University of Idaho’s College of Science, has passed away at age 57.

After spending more than a decade developing tools to study patterns in gene sequences, bioinformaticians are now working on programs to analyze epigenomics data.

And too few insights gleaned from them
