FOREWARD

India was the first Country to establish National BioinformaticsNetwork (BTISnet) in the form of a Distributed Network in 1986-87. Thenetwork initially helped the researchers to access information resourcesthrough the state of the art computer and communication network ofBTISnet. Today the network is covering more than 150 institutions, spreadgeographically all over the country. The Network in creating human resourcein Bioinformatics and carrying out research in different areas ofBioinformatics and computational Biology. Scientists of this network havepublished more than 2000 research papers in peer reviewed journals in lastfive years in this area and helped in publishing more than 4000 researchpapers in other fields of biology and biotechnology. The network has alsoestablished high speed Bio Grid of 12 major institutions, 6 InteractiveGraphics Facilities and 6 M.Sc/ M. Tech. courses in Bioinformatics andComputational Biology.

The department is now encouraging consortium based R&D projectslike bioinformatics applications in Tuberculosis, Kala-azar, Rice, Mango,etc. These Projects are being implemented in association with the Ministryof Health, ICMR and ICAR. The bioinformatics will help in integration ofvast primary information resources for extracting in depth knowledge whichare otherwise not possible by other means. The knowledge which isgenerated out of bioinformatics shall be validated in association of wet-labexperimental biologists for practical applications.

This year BTISnet centres are organizing 139 short term trainings/workshops in nine major subject areas in bioinformatics namely KnowledgeDiscovery from Data, Computational & Structural Bioinformatics, NetworkPathways & Systems Biology, Genome & Proteome Analysis,Bioinformatics with respect to Medical Sciences, Agriculture/ PlantSciences, Environment & Biodiversity and General BioinformaticsTrainings. All these details are compiled in this publication. We hope thatthe publication will be useful for the users for availing required training onthe latest development in these areas. The electronic version of thispublication is also available on http://www.btisnet.gov.in

PREFACE

Biotechnology Information System Network (BTISnet) of theDepartment of Biotechnology is a major distributed network spreadingacross the Nation. A total of 155 centres are as part of the network. Thecentres are at various levels which include an apex centre in DBT, Centresof Excellence, Distributed Information Centres, Distributed InformationSub centres and Bioinformatics Infrastructure Facilities (BIF) for BiologyTeaching through Bioinformatics (BTBI). More details about these networkactivities can be seen through http://www.btisnet.gov.in.

As a commitment to the program the network centres are offeringshort term trainings / workshops in Bioinformatics and ComputationalBiology for the benefit of research community. During the year 2009-10,139 such programs are envisaged in nine different subject areas. Subjectspecific trainings can be identified from the “List of Trainings/Workshops”given in the beginning of calendar.

To participate in these activities one would like to approach the centresby sending the filled application as per the format, available at the end ofthe booklet. List of BTISnet centres with their complete address is alsogiven for further interaction with them directly. Some centres may alsoadvertise through newspapers and websites on their training programs. Alist showing “Calendar at a Glance” is also appended for the purpose ofwall papers and display boards.

Electronic version of the copy may be seen at http://www.btisnet.gov.in/calendar.htm. we hope that the collection of trainings/workshops in Bioinformatics will be helpful for the Bioinformatics interestedresearches. Comments and Suggestions on the training courses are mostwelcome and to be sent to [email protected]
