The Bioinformatics Applications group has been actively interacting with scientists in universities and other research institutes including professionals in the industry across the country. Some of our interactions are with the following:

• Recently,Scientists from the Department of Crystallography & Biophysics, Madras University made use of the National PARAM Supercomputing Facility for their research work. They used the parallel version of molecular modelling package AMBER on the PARAM 10000. They carried out molecular dynamics simulations on modified nucleic acids (2'-5' linked oligonucleotides) for a simulation time of 1 nano second
• The group also plans to initiate fruitful interactions with professionals from drug industry
