Put NIAID’s Data Tools in Your “Omics” Toolkit
This is the latest in a series of articles highlighting resources for researchers from NIAID’s Division of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (DMID).
Did you know NIAID provides powerful tools for data analysis at no charge?
Our Bioinformatics Resource Centers offer integrated “omics” datasets, bioinformatics tools, and services to support your research on NIAID Category A, B, and C Priority Pathogens and Emerging and Re-emerging Infectious Diseases.
You can access the centers through a shared Web portal. Go to Bioinformatics Resource Centers to learn more.
Also take a look at our Systems Biology Program, whose data, protocols, and computational and statistical models we make public.
Already, the program has produced a prediction tool for type 3 secretion proteins and experimental protocols for high throughput technologies — with more molecular network analysis tools and data sets to come. Go to Systems Biology for Infectious Diseases Research for details on this program.
Don’t forget about sequence, related data, and open source bioinformatics tools available from our genomic sequencing centers. Visit the Genome Sequencing Centers site for more information on that.
Consider other NIAID-sponsored data and analytic tools that can give your omics research some extra oomph — see Omics Research Tools and Technologies and contact Dr. Malu Polanski to discuss tapping the potential of any of these resources.
