Focus of research

In the e-Bioscience group of the Bioinformatics Laboratory we research and develop new methodologies for the analysis of data using advanced concepts from information and communication technology (ICT). We work closely with AMC researchers that have large or complex data analysis problems in various areas, for example medical imaging and genomics. Together, we are able to accomplish data analysis faster, or more easily, or more accurately. This research area has been coined more generally as "e-science", or "enhanced" science obtained with the help of ICT. Our research activities are therefore multidisciplinary, in the space between Computer Science, Medical Imaging, Bioinformatics or more generally Medical Informatics.
