We hold informal online Meetups for people doing bioinformatics in Victoria where we share tools, approaches, and problems.

Epigenetic biallelic inactivation in prostate cancer remains to be explored. Here, the authors develop a computational method Epi2Hit that integrates the hemizygous genomic disruptions with patterns of hypermethylation at regulatory CpG sites to identify biallelic inactivation in tumour suppressor genes.

We are actively involved in bioinformatics research and infrastructure projects around the world.

Python can be used in two modes: interactive and scripted. In interactive mode you enter a program fragment and Python evaluates it immediately and then prints the result before prompting for a new input. The interactive prompt is usually rendered as the chevron >>>. In scripted mode your program is stored in one or more files which are executed as one monolithic entity. Such programs behave like ordinary applications.

This beginner workshop provides a hands-on introduction to Python programming for data analysis.
