Balcony A, Natcher Conference Center
A recent prediction: By 2010, most practicing biomedical scientists will spend their
time sitting at computers mining the data generated by high-throughput 'biology
factories.' That may be a fanciful overstatement, but bioinformatics is definitely
playing a larger and larger role in biomedical science, complementary to the
advances in genomics and proteomics. Every biologist must now know how to
access and mine public databases such as those generated by the Genome Project.
Sometimes the context is that of basic science; at other times, the data are applied
to problems in translational research. In this mini-symposium, we will explore the
burgeoning array of bioinformatics resources being made available at the NIH and
will highlight their practical application in bringing insights from the bench to
clinical medicine.
