Bioinformatics Lab

Bioinformatics is a field of science that stands out as a single discipline formed at the junction of biology, computer science and information technology. This new field arose due to the rapid development of biological sciences and the emergence of related new technologies. The discovery of the structure of DNA, new concepts of genes, and in-depth study of the mechanisms of biological processes and mechanisms led to the generation and accumulation of huge amounts of data, in particular due to the development of DNA sequencing technology. The volume of this data continues to grow steadily thanks to next-generation sequencing technologies (NGS). It seems impossible to analyze such a large amount of information manually, therefore, computer computing systems are increasingly being used to analyze experimental data in biological disciplines, as well as medicine.
In this way, bioinformatics is a new field that deals with the use of computers to collect, organize, analyze, process, present and exchange data for solving biological problems at the molecular level, where bioinformatic, mathematical and statistical methods are aimed at solving tasks using nucleotide and/or amino acid sequences and related information.

The mission of the laboratory is to create a national bioinformatics research school in the Republic of Uzbekistan, as an essential element of the modern development of scientific directions in the field of biology, medicine and pharmacology, which will contribute to strengthening the scientific and technical base of the country at the international level.

The purpose of the laboratory is to bring the Center for Genomics and Bioinformatics (CGB) to the leaders of research centers in the field of bioinformatics and computational biology at the regional level with international recognition.
