Large Scale Genomics and Big Data Bioinformatics

This research area focuses on genome research on bacteria relevant for biotechnology, agriculture and the environment, on structural and functional decoding of genomes of crop plants, animal cell cultures and microalgae, on metagenomics analysis of microbial communities as well as on elucidation of the function and interaction of genes and genomes with post-genomics and bioinformatics methods.

Speakers: Prof. Dr. J. Kalinowski and Prof. Dr. Jens Stoye
