It is essential to have extensive bioinformatics support to manage the vast amount of highly diverse data sets that are generated in the different 'omics' domains of life sciences. It is equally essential to have specialized bioinformatics software tools to analyse, integrate and model these data from complex biological systems in order to unravel their systemic properties. This subproject will focus on bioinformatics of biological data-integration. The most important challenge is to set up a specific bioinformatics problem-solving environment within the VL-e framework, in which life sciences researchers will be able to integrate experiment data from different 'omics' levels, thus allowing understanding and modelling of cellular processes.
