Biology and Computer Science? You must be talking about DNA scan

The Brazilian National Laboratory for Scientific Computation (LNCC) opened up its Bioinformatics Laboratory (LABINFO) for the first course on Metagenomic Analysis With the Use of Second Generation Platform for DNA Sequencing.

40 South-American students benefited from the 10 days tuition that aimed to upgrade the general scientific knowledge of the mechanisms for bioinformatics and database analysis adopted today in metagenomics (the study of populations different from microorganisms). The advanced platform presented as the latest in DNA sequencing was 454 da Roche.

According to Gustavo Gregocci, PhD in Biology from the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP): "Computer science is crucial in the selection of data taken after a race over a sequence."

I hope this promotes the use of technology on a field traditionally no so 'into it', like Biology.
