Bioinformatics Network

The Bioinformatics Network supports RMIT researchers with the advancement of their bioinformatics, through fostering collaborations, providing training and the dissemination of cutting-edge research.

The Bioinformatics Network is a hub for advancing bioinformatics at RMIT through industry, national and international partnerships. Facilitating cross-disciplinary collaborations, connections, and knowledge sharing, we support students and staff to develop their skills across all areas of bioinformatics and computational biology. Through online training, interactive workshops and HDR courses we improve data literacy in all omics areas, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and the microbiome.
