  1. Comprehensive Bioinformatics Educational Services Overview

  2. The Problem Bioinformatics There is a need for a fundamentalunderstandingofbioinformaticsanddata mining • a person with combined expertise in biology and computers is rare • scientists entering the field of genomics do not necessarily have informatics skills

  3. The Problem Bioinformatics There are a multitude ofintegrationandanalysisstrategies • enormously large amounts of data spread across separate repositories • NCBI’s GenBank and Entrez Nucleotide databases over 200 billion bases from over 127 million sequences • NCBI’s PubMed biological research literature database over18 millionmanuscripts from over22 thousandjournals • NCBI, EMBL, DDBJ, and hundreds of smaller repositories • disparate data structures and languages complicate analysis

  4. The Problem Bioinformatics How can scientists learn to combine biology with computational skills?

  5. The IMC BioEd Solution BioEd BioEd Mission Fulfilling the need for a fundamental understanding of bioinformatics and data mining by offering a continuum of educational and outreach support backed by experts in the field of bioinformatics education
