Program Description
The Center for Bioinformatics and Computational Biology supports
research and research training in areas that join biology with the computer
sciences, engineering, mathematics, and physics. Toward this end, the center
develops and manages programs in computational biology, such as the
generation of mathematical models of biological networks, the development of
modeling and simulation tools, the conduct of basic theoretical studies
related to network organization and dynamic processes, and the development
of methods for the analysis and dissemination of computational models. The
center also defines the Institute's needs for database development and
applications, and it collaborates with other NIH components and Federal
agencies in developing policies in this area. Other center activities
include the support of multidisciplinary collaborations and of workshops,
courses, and specialized meetings.
