==About the group==

The applied bioinformatics group was founded in 2007 at the University of Queensland to lead a Bioinformatics node for the Australian Centre for Plant Functional Genomics and establish independent research in applied bioinformatics. Since this time, the group has attracted more than 6.5 M AU$ in competitive funds and is a leading bioinformatics group in Australia. Our current research activities include the second generation sequencing of complex plant genomes and metagenomic populations, genome annotation, diversity analysis, trait association and data visualisation.

The group receives funding from the [http://www.acpfg.com.au/ Australian Centre for Plant Functional Genomics], the [http://www.uq.edu.au/ University of Queensland], the [http://www.arc.gov.au/ Australian Research Council], the [http://www.grdc.com.au/ Grains Research and Development Corporation] and several industry partners to undertake applied bioinformatics research in genetics and genomics.

The group is led by Professor [[David Edwards]] and consists of researchers with diverse backgrounds. We offer training in applied bioinformatics at all levels and [[publications_DE|publish]] widely in the fields of genomics, genetics and bioinformatics. Please contact [mailto:Dave.Edwards@uq.edu.au David Edwards] for further information.

We are based at the University of Queensland's St Lucia campus in Brisbane, Australia.

==Publications==

A current list of publications can be found here [[publications_DE|'publications']]

==Public research projects==

The applied bioinformatics research group works in several areas associated with second generation sequencing and assembly, genetic and genomic variation analysis and the discovery and application of molecular genetic markers. We work with a range of species, mostly in collaboration with a broad range of national and international research groups.
