While the bioinformatics community has matured substantially in recent years, rapid development is required to keep pace with massive increases in data volume and generation. Specifically, there is still much room for improvement in the optimization of computational resources, discovery of and access to analytical tools, and training and general dissemination of bioinformatics best practices.

Specifically, there is still much room for improvement in the optimization of computational resources, discovery of and access to analytical tools, and training and general dissemination of bioinformatics best practices. Furthermore, privacy and data protection policies often present obstacles for bioinformaticians in the realm of health informatics. To address these needs, the Bioinformatics National Team (BNT) is committed to a strategy that includes leveraging existing Alliance resources as well as developing new resources and practices where necessary. | ||
