The Bioinformatics Supergroup brings together people from several departments, including MCDB, EEB, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Computer Science, and Applied Math, who are interested in applying advanced computational techniques to biological problems.
The goal of the group is to increase communication among people on campus who are doing bioinformatics-related work, and to provide support to people who are just learning about this exciting emerging field.
Meetings are held from 5:00 to 6:30 on selected Mondays in Ekeley W165/W166 (note time change!) (map here), on selected Mondays at roughly 4-week intervals. The typical meeting format is two 30-minute talks, with discussion following each talk.
Deborah Wuttke (Chem) has put up information about bioinformatics here.
I have put up some information for students, including relevant classes, here. (Warning: needs to be updated with current information).
The Bioinformatics Supergroup is affiliated with the Center for Computational Biology, based at CU Denver, which sponsors several meetings and events.
Many useful databases can be accessed through NCBI and EBI. Good directories of tools can be found here and here. Joe Felsenstein's page on phylogenetics tools can be found here.
Mike Robeson has put up a useful page listing Mac bioinformatics applications here.
