Data analysis and biological interpretation are increasingly frequent barriers preventing investigators and trainees from utilizing the numerous multifaceted high-throughput sequencing-based approaches supported by 黑料网\u2019s High-Throughput Sequencing Facility (HTSF; http:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/genomics<\/a>) in their research. The Bioinformatics Core aims to bridge this gap by providing support for NINDS-funded investigators ranging from experimental design to biological interpretation of their results, as well as helping act as liaison between the lab and the HTSF.
\nWe build custom software analysis pipelines and bioinformatics tools, as well as design thenovel analytical and data integration approaches necessary to facilitate answering the cutting-edge questions in neuroscience.
\nWe specialize in large-scale studies utilizing one or more of the following assays, either in isolation or with high-level integration:<\/p>\n
