The nature of the internet and computers is such that anybody can post and create whatever they want. This creates a situation were we are hit with a plethora of data whenever we try to learn something new. As a non-programer it has taken me some time to learn Bioinformatics software and decide which programs are the best for any situation. This group can hopefully create a forum where we can all share our knowledge of Bioinformatics such that the learning curve is less steep. Feel free to post and introduce any topic of interest to Bioinformatics, including programing topics! Possible topics of interest may include (but are not limited to):

- Homolog prediction using BLAST, PSI-BLAST, or HMM methods
- Microarray design, normalization, and analysis
- High throughput sequencing applications (ChIP-seq, RNA-seq) and output analysis
- Phylogenetic tree construction
- Use of command line in a Mac OS or Linux environment
- Construction of useful scripts
- Mining SQL type databases for useful information
- Anything else of related interest...!

Discuss your science here! All members are automatically added to this group when they sign up, so here's where you can find the largest audience for anything you might want to talk about.


Please, no spam or solicitations. Just civil discussion about anything that's on your mind! :-)

The goal of the San Diego Postdoc Network is to unite all postdocs in the San Diego area to help organize, communicate, connect, and share ideas, events and more.
