About the Training Course:
The Gene Ontology (GO) aims to capture the increasing knowledge on gene
function in a controlled vocabulary applicable to all the organisms and
describes gene products in terms of their associated biological processes,
cellular components and molecular functions. The terms being hierarchical in
relationship, representation is complex. Cytoscape, an open source software
platform, takes advantage of its complex visualization environment to
visualize molecular interaction networks and biological pathways and
integrating these networks with annotations, gene expression profiles and
other state data.
Topics include:

The Department of Biotechnology was established in the year 2007. The
department offers a two year M. Sc., Degree Course in Biotechnology.
Doctoral programme leading to Ph.D. is also being offered at the
department. The department is undertaking research projects and has
attracted funds from various agencies such as DBT, DST, CSIR and UGC.
Chairman:
The Bioinformatics Infrastructure Facility (BIF) was established by the
DBT, Government of India in the year 2008 and the facility is housed in the
Dept. of Biotechnology of the Mizoram University. This facility has
high/medium end servers and state of the art desktop machines and
softwares.
