Bioinformatics and Biomathematics Training Hub

The Bioinformatics and Biomathematics Training Hub (BBTH) is a BBSRC-funded collaborative project to coordinate the development and sharing of training materials and expertise across the UK’s National Institutes of Bioscience (NIB — http://www.nib.ac.uk/) for the increasingly important areas of bioinformatics and biomathematics.

Guided by our NIB partners, researcher surveys, and interactions with interested bodies such as Elixir-UK, we will work to ensure that best use is made of existing assets and capabilities, that best practice is shared across the NIB, and that redundant effort is minimised going forwards.
