Our Mission

The purpose of the GCCBN is to foster excellent cross-disciplinary research and education in the field of bioinformatics, particularly in the Houston/Galveston geographical area. The GCCBN will serve as a means of building and maintaining a community of interest among researchers at member institutions in the biological, information, and computer sciences, as well as affiliated industrial partners.

The GCCBN seeks to fulfill this mission through activities in three areas: education, communication, and research funding. The consortium coordinates a cross institutional curriculum in bioinformatics, and will certify the completion of this curriculum by students at both the bachelor's and graduate levels. By combining the strongest instructional offerings by each of the member educational institutions, we are able to provide a program that is competitive with any at a national level.
