BIOINFORMATICS
Support is available for projects that are run at UWBC facilities, and is provided for a fee by the UWBC Bioinformatics Resource Center. Terminals and software are available in our computer lab for clients of UWBC facilities who are internal to UW-Madison or the University of Wisconsin System who need to perform further analysis but lack the necessary hardware and software.
