Purpose:
To provide information to the associate organizations and their employees about Consortium activities and to facilitate communication between the associate members regarding their research capabilities and needs.
Current and Ongoing Projects:
- NCGBC Web site
- The Communications Focus Group has recently redesigned the original NCGBC Web site. In order to better serve our associates and the general public, the new site will be easier to navigate, have more pertinent information, and ultimately serve as your portal to genomics, bioinformatics and proteomics in North Carolina.
Send comments on the site to Jennifer Holmes. - NCGBC Newsletter
- The Communications Focus Group produces a quarterly newsletter to keep the genomics and bioinformatics community abreast of recent NCGBC activities.
- Genomics Conference
- Academics and professionals will share the latest genomics research at this annual conference, now in the planning stages.
Completed Projects:
- NCGBC Database
- Our Associates need information about the organizations and people involved in the biotechnology/genomics industry to form effective partnerships. The Genomics Community Database was created to meet this need.
