NIH Library Bioinformatics Fair
June 14 & 19, 2012
1-4 pm (both days)
Lipsett Amphitheater, NIH, Clinical Center, Building 10
The NIH Library Bioinformatics Support Program http://nihlibrary.nih.gov/bioinformatics will host a two-day Bioinformatics Fair on June 14 & 19, 2012, 1-4 pm in Lipsett Amphitheater in Building 10.
No registration is required.
Attend the NIH Library Bioinformatics Fair to learn how scientists are using software to analyze, integrate, and annotate data from multiple genomic technologies. Discover the latest applications of these data analysis tools to problems in molecular biology. Find out how state-of-the-art knowledge bases are transforming the functional analysis of high-throughput data.
The Bioinformatics Fair program will feature a series of 20-minute speaker presentations followed by Q&A that will showcase the licensed resources available from the NIH Library Bioinformatics Support Program: http://nihlibrary.nih.gov/bioinformatics/licenses. Company scientists and representatives will explain the practical applications of the resources in research.
