Our Bioinformatics and statistics group based at the Brain and Mind Centre (BMC) comprises mathematicians/statisticians, IT engineers/computer scientists, and biologists/bioinformaticians at the Brain and Mind Centre, University of Sydney, specialized for development of bioinformatics & AI methodology to manage, analyze and mine large, complex datasets. The team’s contribution is the development of new methodology and the proof of concept on previously developed bioinformatics framework to process thousands of high-dimensional data sets in a time effective and coherent way.
