Our research activities

Computational Biology Research Center (CBRC) performs
research activities to create a wide array of industrial technologies
using genomes and the other biological information to fulfill our mission.
The training of future specialists in the field is an additional
dimension of the CBRC's remit and in close coordination with
private enterprise and universities, we are engaged in programs
to cultivate human resources, those destined to be the architects
and builders of the next generation of bioinformatics technology.
