Teams

Medical bioinformatics group of the Medical Proteome Center at the Ruhr University Bochum

We are a team of Academic Specialists who collaborate with researchers to enable data-intensive research across the University. We work with researchers at all stages of the research lifecycle, from research design and data collection, all the way through to analysis, visualisation, and interpretation.

Research areas: - Structure, evolution and maintenance of telomeres and their roles in chromosome stability, DNA repair and plant speciation - Epigenetic mechanisms in the regulation of gene expression, chromatin assembly, genome stability and telomere homeostasis - Transcription, replication and DNA repair in the context of nuclear and nucleolar architecture

This team is dedicated to the development of the Meta-NanoSim tool: https://github.com/bcgsc/nanosim

MGnify (formerly known as EBI Metagenomics) is a free resource for the assembly, analysis, archiving and browsing all types of microbiome derived sequence data.
