  1. Learning and exploring Life science through the EBI reosurces and tools BIOQUEST workshop_2011 Vicky Schneider, EMBL-EBI Training Programme Project leader vicky@ebi.ac.uk

  2. Research www.ebi.ac.uk/groups

  3. Key facts about research • The EBI provides a unique environment for bioinformatics research • Eight dedicated research groups aim to understand biology through new approaches to interpreting biological data • Services teams also carry out R&D to enhance existing services and develop new ones • Research programme complements services and the two are mutually supportive

  4. Curiosity-driven research Genomes Transcriptomes Proteins Pathways and systems Ewan Birney Alvis Brazma Janet Thornton Nicolas Le Novère Anton Enright Rolf Apweiler Nick Luscombe PaulFlicek Nick Goldman John Marioni Gerard Kleywegt Paul Bertone Text mining Chemistry biology/medicine chemistry/chem engineering maths physics ChristophSteinbeck DietrichRebholz-Schuhmann JohnOverington Julio Saez-Rodriguez

  5. Examples of EMBL-EBI research How do the neurons of someone with Parkinson’s disease signal differently from healthy neurons? What is the molecular basis of ageing? Which of these changes to a genome’s structure drive cancer? Which of these proteins will make good targets for drugs? What makes a stem cell decide to become skin or muscle?

  6. Training www.ebi.ac.uk/training

  7. Hands-on training for all levels of experience • Interactive training in our purpose-built IT training suite at EMBL-EBI, Hinxton, Cambridge • Learn from the EBI’s experts through a combination of talks and practical exercises • Take a tour of all our core data resources, or focus in on specific data types • Full programme at www.ebi.ac.uk/training/handson

  8. Predoc and postdoc training • Open Days for bioinformatics early-stage researchers www.ebi.ac.uk/training/openday • PhD studentships through EMBL International PhD Programme www.ebi.ac.uk/training/Studentships • EIPOD interdisciplinary post-doc fellowship programme www.embl.de/training/postdocs/eipod • EBI–Sanger postdoc programme ww.ebi.ac.uk/training/postdoc/ESPOD
