H3ABioNet

H3ABioNet, a Pan African Bioinformatics Network is being developed to support H3Africa research projects through the development of bioinformatics capacity on the continent. Specifically H3ABioNet aims to: Engage with the H3Africa Consortium, providing a framework for integration and communication amongst its members to ensure progress towards the common goal of full exploitation of our genomic and environmental resources for translation into improved health in Africa. Develop a core bioinformatics infrastructure (hardware and human resources) to aid research in genomic medicine, high throughput biology, systems biology, genetics, and medicine, for the study of human heredity and health. Develop tools and bioinformatics solutions appropriate for exploitation and interpretation of biological information in Africa, and make these more accessible to H3Africa researchers. Develop research partnerships and promote interaction between bioinformaticians, clinicians, molecular geneticis...
