WP2.6

Bioinformatics

The work carried out in this WP involves R&D activities in the field of health sciences in close collaboration with CICS-UBI, including multi-disciplinary projects with topics such as: analysis of biological, clinical and epidemiological data for the identification of disease biomarkers; identification of genomic risk variants in case-control genetic epidemiology studies; computational analysis of genomic variants to assess their potential functional impact; virtual drug screening and drug-molecule interaction modelling; and other computational biology applications.
