About
this List
The list
of groups, laboratories, departments and centers working in general
area of Computational Biology/Bioinformatics in Brazil is an initiative,
rather than an exhaustive list.
At this moment we are starting to map Brazilian diversity in this area
and hope to make an resource that will serve as a valuable information
for both members of Brazilian Bioinformatics community (including representatives
of government funding agencies) and for general international reference.
In both cases we expect
to create a tool that might
1) Assist government and other agencies to identify all existing groups
acting in general area of Computational Biology - Bioinformatics in
Brazil.
2) Assist government and other agencies in evaluating existing Bioinformatics
programs and in formulating new programs for Bioinformatics in Brazil
(potentially in Latin America as well in the later stage).
3) Assist government and other agencies in finding Bioinformatics reviewers
in Brazil
4) Provide necessary information for potential international partners
about infrastructure and programs of counterparts in Brazilian Computational
Biology - Bioinformatics.
This list will tentatively assign different color code to each listed
group/lab/center, according to its level of engagement in this general
field of science:
