The Bioinformatics Core provides comprehensive computational and analytical support to investigators engaged in basic, translational, and clinical research.
The purposes of the Bioinformatics Core are to:
- Deliver expert analysis for single-cell omics, spatial transcriptomics, bulk RNA-seq, and other high-dimensional genomic datasets, including assistance with experimental design, data processing, quality control, interpretation, and manuscript preparation.
- Develop, optimize, and implement innovative computational workflows and analytical methodologies to address emerging needs in modern multi-omics research.
- Facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration by participating in project-planning meetings with program leaders, laboratory investigators, and other shared resource teams to ensure robust study design and analytical strategy.
- Contribute to institutional oversight by supporting review and evaluation of genomics-based projects and protocols, providing guidance on data quality, reproducibility, and analytical rigor.
- Provide ongoing education and training in bioinformatics methods, tools, and best practices for faculty, trainees, and staff through workshops, seminars, and one-on-one consultation.
