Biomedical research increasingly dealing with computational data. BGG plays a critical rule to answer some biological questions that arise from human infection with pathogens
Vision:
To answer biological questions using computational power.
Mission:
To create a bioinformatics hub serve up a different type of researches in Sudan
BGG aims to answer the biological questions related to the pathogen genomes by using the computational methods and provide a service hub for the students and research in the field of infectious disease. Also, we help them with the following aspects:
· Basics of bioinformatics and genomics aspects
· Sequencing technologies
· genome assembly, alignments, read mapping
· Basic programming and scripting for bioinformatics
· Competence in R and equivalent statistical software
· Transcriptome analyses and techniques (microarray, RNA-seq)
· Comparative genomics, molecular evolution, function inferred from signatures of negative and positive selection
· Finding and functional analysis of protein-coding genes
· Genome variation, mutagenesis, connections to phenotypes
· Genome mapping, Mendelian inheritance of genes and DNA markers
