Bioinformatics and Data Science Core (BDSC)
The goal of the Bioinformatics and Data Science Core (BDSC) is to integrate bioinformatics, biostatistics, and data science resources across Delaware INBRE partner institutions to increase access to critical expertise and cyberinfrastructure, strengthening the statewide environment for performing informatically-enabled biomedical research and training.
The activities of BDSC are guided by the Coordination Committee composed of representatives from each Delaware INBRE partner institution to provide a forum for inter-institutional discussion, goal setting, and growth. Working Groups are established to advance initiatives in our three areas of emphasis: Cyberinfrastructure, Education and Training, and Research Support.
