The WSU Bioinformatics Core is a multidisciplinary service center that assists research projects in bioinformatics and allied fields such as genomics and proteomics. As part of the Center for Integrated Biotechnology and Center for Reproductive Biology, the Bioinformatics Core will foster faculty research collaborations and operate a Bioinformatics User Lab for WSU researchers.

The Bioinformatics Core facility provides investigators with centralized genomics and proteomics data storage and analysis. The Core consists of secure high performance servers and workstations. The data generated by the Proteomics and Genomics Core facilities will be seamlessly integrated for storage and analysis by the most commonly used analysis packages. The individual users can also login to the core servers in order to transfer their data for analysis from/to local terminals. Bioinformatics Core services can be accessed through the WSU bioinformatics web site. The web site will serve as a centralized hub (web-based client/server interfaces) with links to the servers, software packages and WWW mirror sites for DNA/protein analysis.
