The Biomedical Informatics Group develops and adapts state-of-the-art methods for the analysis and monitoring of complex biomedical data, commercializes the resulting software products and provides information services to NRC-IBD.
The Biomedical Informatics Group also investigates software engineering methodologies to develop programs that are able to handle large data sets, both for data visualization and data analysis.
Current priorities include the analysis of MR data from cancer projects, analysis and display of MR and infrared spectral data in general, and the extension of these methods to data from proteomics (mass spectra) and genomics (microarray gene expression). There is increased focus on disease characterization and modeling the spread of infectious diseases. Medical image registration is another area of current interest.
The Biomedical Informatics programs are Computational Systems and Statistics, Mathematical Modeling, and Algorithm Design and Development.
