5th anniversary: UBC is relevant and important
We celebrated the metaphoric birthday of the Utrecht Bioinformatics Center with our 5th UBC symposium. During the symposium bioinformatic research in life sciences was displayed from medical sciences to evolution of ancient protein complexes. In scientific perspective, we want to highlight the excellent talks by young PhD candidates who showcased how different clever computational approaches […]

This is how Aridaman Pandit became an expert in his field of interest: “In short, this is my story. I finished my Bachelor’s in Biotechnology, showed the world how HIV continuously evolves, […]
Meet our new Data Steward: Jasmin Böhmer
In addition, my goal is to incrementally change the culture of current research data management habits. Whether it is the data management and documentation in the course of the active research phase, or the publication and preservation of all research output subsequent to the project’s end, good Data Stewardship will steer your research data into […]
From Research to Business: Core Life Analytics
Core Life Analytics is a spin-off based on research that Wienand Omta and David Egan carried out at UMC Utrecht, which was part of a collaboration between Cell Biology at the UMC Utrecht and Computing Sciences at Utrecht University. What’s their story? They developed innovative, web-based, data analytics software that allows biologists to easily mine […]
