The Biomolecular Computing Resource (BimCore) at Emory University School of Medicine is a subscription-based computing support service for Emory researchers. BimCore provides computational resources, training, and on-call support for various Bioinformatics software (sequence analysis, genomics, microarray analysis) and Biomolecular Modeling software (display, modeling, mutagenesis, docking). BimCore actively evaluates current software packages to create an offering which addresses the needs of faculty, is complete, and supplies state-of-the-art solutions to Bioinformatics questions.
The BimCore Sequence Analysis Facility was established in 1992, the BimCore Molecular Modeling Center was established in 1996, and the BimCore Microarray Analysis Facility was established in 2003. The Sequence Analysis Facility (SAF) supports various genetic data analysis software packages along with access to the Celera human genome database, SNPs database, and a local BLAST Server. The Molecular Modelling Center (MMC) supports molecular modelling and graphics software packages. The Microarray Analysis Facility supports various microarray expression data analysis programs, SAS (a statistical package) and a database archive.
In February 2004, CHEDA, "Center for High Throughput Experimental Design and Analysis", was extablised as a joint venture between the Department of Biostatistics (RSPH) and Bimcore.
BimCore receives ongoing financial support from Emory School of Medicine, Woodruff Funds, Graduate School, College and Information Technology Division (ITD)
The Core Facilities at Emory are here to support your research. In order to ensure that the appropriate recognition is attributed to the facilities, please acknowledge the facilities in one of two ways:
Authorship
If your research project involved contributions from any of the School of Medicine's Core Facilities designed or conceiving the experiments, data analysis or interpretation, please recognize the core with co-authorship of papers.
Acknowledgement
If your research project was supported in part by any of the School of Medicine's Core Facilities (but not meriting co-authorship), we ask that you acknowledge the Core(s) in your publications, abstracts, presentations, posters, grant proposals, etc using variations of the following text:
"This research project was supported in part by the [insert name of the Core(s)] of the Emory University School of Medicine."
