Molecules to maps: tools for visualization and interaction in computational biology

摘要

Data continues to accumulate rapidly from the various genome projects and from experimental methods such as X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and functional data, the wide variety of anlayses and annotations to be performed. and the variety of organisms and projects represented in this deluge of information combine to present the bioinformatics community with unprecedented challenges. This conference track explores challenges of enormous importance to the molelcular biology and structural biology communities: tools and techniques to assist scientists in evaluating, absorbing, navigating, and correlating this sea of information, especially through visualization and user interaction.
