Bioinformatics Computing Laboratory (BCL)


BCL is a component of the Integrative Analytics Unit (IAU) in the Research Capacity Core (RCC), Border Biomedical Research Center (BBRC) at UTEP, funded by the National Institute of Health (NIH Grant #5U54MD007592). With a panel of bioinformatics faculty from the departments of Biological Sciences, Chemistry and Biochemistry, Computer Science, and Mathematical Sciences, the BCL provides computational support, consulting and training for bioinformatics software application and development, high performance computing, as well as machine learning and AI. Services include biomolecular sequence and structure analysis, post-transcriptional and translational site prediction, single-cell omics among others. Our bioinformatics computing tools are implemented with the equipment in BCL, its satellite sites, and other high-performance computing facilities on UTEP campus. Web-based, user-friendly interfaces are built for these resources to be utilized by researchers worldwide.
