Accessing Services

The BB Unit aims to provide services based on various areas of expertise in genetic analysis of multifactorial disorders, database development and customised bioinformatics software programming.

 Genetic analysis. Basic and complex analysis of allelic and haplotype association and linkage disequilibrium using parent-offspring trios or case/control datasets; linkage analysis of affected sib-pairs samples and multigenerational pedigrees. A wide range of statistical methods is used, from classical transmission disequilibrium test to novel stepwise logistic regression procedures.

 Database services. A database server system to provide for phenotypic and genotypic data storage, sample management, data conversion utilities, and some basic automated statistical analysis. It will be accessible from the Internet.

 Programming. Customised software modules and solutions for bioinformatics database mining, automated statistical analysis of variable-sized datasets.
