Abstract: A variety of bioinformatics tools in the areas of basic and applied life sciences has altered the worldview of bioscience studies over the years. The creation of new and strong bioinformatics techniques devoted to the acquisition, information mining and analysis of biological data enabled basic and applied research in life sciences from molecular biology to the creation of new biomedical tools. These bioinformatics advances cover the emerging biomedical research areas including the development of newer algorithms with predictive applications, genome annotation tools and prediction of function, gene expression analysis, and biological data in the form of advanced databases. Bioinformatics Sub-DIC, at department of molecular biology & genetic engineering, CBSH, Govind ballabh Pant University of Agriculture & Technology, Pantnagar, Uttarakhand, India having expertise in bioinformatics and conducting training, novel research projects, workshops with the UG, PG and doctorate courses of bioinformatics. Started in 1998 we have been conducting workshops and successfully trained hundreds of attendees including researchers, faculty, scientists etc. The workshop including lectures of eminent scientist and hands on practical sessions of various bioinformatics software/tools thus participants can perform by themselves on their own computer/laptop using bioinformatics. We have conducted more than 20 workshops around the country on latest technologies of bioinformatics especially NGS data analysis, Gene & genome annotation, drug discovery & designing, and MD Simulations. From these perspectives and a huge demand in the region a three days training course & hands-on workshop entitled “Basics of Bioinformatics and its Application for Applied Life Sciences†has been organized by Bioinformatics Sub-DIC Pantnagar to provide the emerging aspects of bioinformatics for agriculture and life sciences.
