Innsbruck
SOLID Roadshow
On the 23rd of January, 2020 following talks were held at the HPC in Life Sciences User meeting Innsbruck:
HPC for Life Sciences at University of Innsbruck
Bioinformatics helpdesk: Lessons from LiSC
Introduction to the Vienna Scientific Cluster
Medical University of Innsbruck
Insitute of Bioinformatics
The research activities at the Institute of Bioinformatics are directed towards two major thrusts:
- Computational genomics. We are computationally exploring diverse functional genomics data in the context of human diseases. By analyzing high-dimensional datasets we aim to identify and prioritize candidate genes and further characterize pathways contributing to the pathophysiology of diseases.
- Cancer immunology. Our aim is to decipher tumor-immune cell interaction using a combined computational-experimental approach. Specifically, we are addressing the question how is the immune system shaping the mutational spectrum of the tumor during progression.
