IBG-BIP Bioinformatics Platform

OVERVIEW

The IBG Bioinformatics Platform (IBG-BIP) is a unit established to carry out research and development activities on bioinformatics and computational biology, as well as to support the scientific research conducted at IBG. The unit is composed of four divisions.

1) Research and Development:
The IBG-BIP-RD division works on methods used in bioinformatic computing, software tools and databases. It utilises existing scientific methods and tools, in addition to developing new ones according to scientific requirements. Specifically, the division conducts work specialising on new generation sequencing technologies. The division supervisor is Nazmiye Arslan.

2) Collaborative Research:
The IBG-BIP-CR division initiates and conducts collaborative research with scientists working at IBG. Data from different sources is modelled and subjected to various biostatistical analyses with the ultimate aim of turning the data into scientific knowledge. The division supervisor is Ahmet Bursalı.

3) High-Performance Computing:
The IBG-BIP-HPC division manages the high-performance computing (HPC) unit used for bioinformatic computing at IBG. Resources of the HPC such as storage and processor are provided for users. The division supervisor is Alirıza Arıbaş.

4) Education and Training:
The IBG-BIP-ET division provides training to IBG personnel on access to and usage of bioinformatics resources, as well as conducting scientific studies with graduate students on bioinformatics. The division supervisor is Gökhan Karakülah.
