National Centre for Bioinformatics NCB QAU Islamabad The NCB is a community founded and run by the students of National Center for Bioinformatics (NCB) Q

NCB was established as a faculty affiliated research center in 2008 through funding by Higher Education Commission. It is housed in 53000 square feet building comprising 8 research and 2 computational labs. Currently, NCB has been provided 8 academic and 13 supporting staff positions. Besides, it integrates Department of Computer Sciences, other Departments of Biological Sciences and Department of Mathematics. NCB is offering M.Phil and Ph.D programs in the area of Bioinformatics. The major goal of NCB is to promote quality training and research in the area of Bioinformatics. Bioinformatics originated as a cross-disciplinary field as the need for computational sections to research problem raised in biomedicine. The field evolved as computation became cheaper and widespread during the 80s, as the internet grew during the 90s, and as high throughput technologies become common in the 2000s. The use of computational methods in biomedicine deals with the analysis, storage, manipulation and interpretation of macromolecules such as DNA, RNA and proteins. Conversely, wet lab analysis of computationally predicted functionally relevant motifs/segments of macromolecules further enhances our understanding of complex mechanisms occurring in cells.
