Links Directory
The website of the UBC
Bioinformatics Centre
(University of British Columbia, CA) features curated links to
molecular resources, tools and databases. All of the resources are free
or available for a nominal fee. The links listed in this directory are
selected on the basis of recommendations from bioinformatics experts in
the field.

- Helmholtz
Network for
Bioinformatics
A user-friendly web interface
for
integrating complex bioinformatics tasks.
It is a joint venture of leading German bioinformatics research groups
and offers convenient access to numerous bioinformatics resources
through a single web portal.
"In the problem
oriented approach, the user is guided by a
detailed, tree-like questionnaire ('Guided Tool Finder') towards tools
suitable for solving specific problems. This approach does not require
any previous knowledge of the available tools and allows our users to
concentrate entirely on describing their problems. Furthermore, many
HNB tools have been pre-configured with problem-specific optimal
parameters to prevent novices from being confused by too many
adjustable program parameters.
The task oriented
approach is meant for solving more
advanced biological problems that often require the interplay of more
than one tool. Mechanisms have been developed that allow for the
integration of programs and databases into automated program cascades
(or 'tasks'). With this approach, no further user interaction (i.e. for
data reformatting or transfer) is required once a task has been
launched."
