Vermont Biomedical Research Network (VBRN) Bioinformatics Core

 

Overview of the Core

The Vermont Biomedical Network Bioinformatics Core provides bioinformatics support to life science researchers in Vermont and Northeast Regional IDeA States. The Core provides a diversity of services to its users with expertise in biostatistics, microarray data analysis, proteome informatics, next generation sequencing data analysis, functional analysis, database development and information technology, including data storage infrastructure and high performance computing. Working closely with the VBRN Proteomics Facility, we offer investigators experimental design consultations, comprehensive data analysis, data management and publishing, and manuscript and grant support. Core personnel also engage in teaching and training activities for data analysis and compute resources necessary for VBRN network investigators. Our goal is to provide network researchers with the bioinformatics expertise needed to help advance their life science research and to obtain competitive grant funding and publications.

VBRN Bioinformatics Core members also participate in regional and national projects to promote the sharing of research resources, including the VBRN Searchable Core Facilities Database, called Core Marketplace, a free global interface for sharing scientific resources developed and maintained by this Core.
