NPC Research Program
The research program of the NPC can be divided into three major parts:
-
Five research themes that are set-up in close collaboration with the NGI Genomics Centres of Excellence
-
The Enabling Technologies Program which focuses on the development of proteomics and bioinformatics tools
-
The NPC Research Hotels, that offer infrastructure and expertise in the field of proteomics and bioinformatics to the research community at large
Research themes
The research themes the NPC will focus on are:
