Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'The main aim of AllBio will be the coordination of the partner's activities that are aimed at the extension of a large number of bioinformatics facilities towards applicability in target life science areas beyond human health. Bioinformatics facilities developed for the human health area will be extensively tested on unicellular (incl. bacterial), plant and (farm) animal genomes, and they will be tightly integrated in the wider frame-work of Elixir infrastructure activities. AllBio will develop a coordinated action plan for the harvest of the information from 'omics' data related to other species than Homo sapiens.'
Introduzione (Teaser)
The global research community has dedicated a great deal of time and money to deciphering the human genome. A new project is applying the knowledge and tools gained in this effort to the life sciences beyond Homo sapiens.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
Although elucidating the human genome did not produce the miracle results expected by some, the process did generate a body of information, software tools and know-how.
The bioinformatics pipelines that were developed, for instance, can also be useful in studying non-human genomes.The EU-funded 'Broadening the bioinformatics infrastructure to unicellular, animal, and plant science' (http://www.allbioinformatics.eu (ALLBIO)) project coordinates an action plan to do exactly that.
The idea is to use bioinformatics pipelines to study the genomics of plants, animals and unicellular organisms.
The project is a part of the wider http://www.elixir-europe.org (Elixir initiative) , which aims to build an electronic infrastructure that will give biologists better access to relevant data and tools.
ALLBIO's role is to adjust the pipelines for use in non-human studies, and to provide training for all parties involved in the process.ALLBIO has already gathered almost 20 communities of researchers and bioinformaticians in different fields related to non-human genomics, who have presented 15 real-world test cases to ALLBIO for further study.
Four hackathons have also been held where participants used the test cases as starting points to develop non-human genomic workflows.Additionally, the project has conducted several training workshops on a range of topics to support its activities.
Another five hackathons are planned for the next year of the project, as well as more training courses.
