Decoding the Lipidomics Revolution: LIFS Tools Leading the Way
For far too long, lipids have been the unsung heroes in the epic saga of biology. Despite making up over 10% of our bodies, lipids took a backseat in the scientific limelight. However, the tides are turning, and a quiet revolution is underway, with the Lipidomics Informatics for Life Sciences (LIFS) toolkit at the forefront.

Exploring Genomes with EDGAR: A Comparative Genomics Powerhouse
Comparative genomics is a well proven method that allows researchers to delve into the genetic blueprints of organisms, deciphering their similarities, differences, and evolutionary histories. It's a vital tool for understanding genomes and genes, their expression, function and interaction. In this field, the EDGAR platform, created by Jochen Blom and his team, is one of the most established options.

Their extensive knowledge and practical insights promise to equip young researchers with valuable skills and insights to excel in the ever-evolving field of bioinformatics and systems biology.
In this interview for the de.NBI blog, the instructors explain the curriculum of the upcoming de.NBI training course Tools for Systems biology modeling and data exchange: CellNetAnalyzer, COPASI, SABIO-RK, FAIRDOMHub/SEEK 2023
The de.NBI Industrial Forum poses the opportunity to participate at the achievements of the German Network for Bioinformatics Infrastructure (de.NBI)
This article is introducing the de.NBI Industrial Forum, its connection to the de.NBI and ELIXIR networks as well as possibilities to participate in the de.NBI network’s achievements.
As pointed out in previous blog articles, the de.NBI network offers life science researchers free of charge services, training, compute resources as well as international connections to cope with the ongoing demands of big data handling. Sharing the common ground on handling big data, bioinformatics analysis, and a deep interest in life science, there are a lot of interconnections between the de.NBI network, the de.NBI Industrial Forum and industrial life science applications.
The de.NBI Industrial Forum currently holds 39 companies from Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and Luxembourg ranging from small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to big pharma companies.
