I Want To...

 

This page will develop into a searchable database of the tasks that you might wish to perform when using bioinformatics as part of your research. It will provide access to the programs, their documentation and tutorial help suitable to your research problem. Notes compatible with some of the University's bioinformatics courses will also be available.

At the moment, this page provides a list of common tasks, that you may wish to perform, and directs you to the programs and documentation that are available for them. Either scroll through the list to find what you want or use the find function of your browser.

Please send any suggestions for inclusion on this page or other comments to BRUHK support
