The SBI will develop and deliver training programs in the analysis of genomic, proteomic and systems biology data.
These will be delivered annually, or more frequently if demand requires.
SBI core staff and other affiliated experts will present in these workshops. Participants for workshops are welcome from all NSW universities and research institutes. Researchers, as well as research students, are invited to attend.
October 9 2009: NSW Bioinformatics Research Symposium
Organised in association with Sydney Bioinformatics, this one-day symposium provided a forum for bioinformatics and life science researchers to explore the latest in bioinformatics research and how these developments apply in life science research. It is also provided an opportunity to establish cross-disciplinary research collaborations.
This year, the Symposium focused on next-generation sequencing, as advances in this technology begin to drive a whole new phase of bioinformatics research and applications in biological and medical research.

July 2009: Advanced Proteomic Data Analysis Workshop
Workshop 1 (Protein Identification) materials
Workshop 3 (Gene Ontology) materials
This one-day hands-on workshop focused on the advanced use of search engines for protein identification and discovery of protein post-translational modifications, as well as an introduction to the interpretation of functional significance using systems biology techniques.
The workshop was part of a four-day training course offered by the Biological Mass Spectrometry Facility at the University of New South Wales. For more information, please click here.
March 2009: The Future of Bioinformatics
Organised in affiliation with EMBL Australia, the SBI co-hosted this one-day workshop in association with Sydney Bioinformatics. Invited presenters included Dr. Ewan Birney (EBI), Prof. Nadia Rosenthal (Head, EMBL Australia) and Prof. Ian Dawes.
