Form for applying funding for students' activities has been added in the 'For students' section.The Nordic Network in Biological Informatics consists of four organizations with national responsibilities to provide resarch education and training, and additionally, national resources for research. Our network's primary aims within this setting are to promote cooperation among national schools in the Nordic region in order to
- increase the breadth and depth of expertise available to each school
- promote mobility and research collaboration
- maximize the quality of doctoral education and research training that each school can offer
The network was funded by NordForsk initially for the period 2009-2011, and the funding has since been extended through 2014.
The four member graduate schools currently (December 2008) have 188 full-time graduate students, 124 principal investigators, and 58 other participants. The member schools are:
- National Doctoral Programme in Informational and Structural Biology (ISB), Finland
- BioStruct - National Graduate School in Structural Biology, Norway
- Research School in Systems Biology (SysBio), Norway
- National Research School in Genomics and Bioinformatics (GenBio), Sweden
