The LDCRC would like to congratulate Professor Aedín Culhane and Dr Maria Doyle who have recently received substantial funding of €730,000 from the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI). This funding will provide support to Dr Doyle and Professor Culhane to continue the ground-breaking work in Bioconductor which is an open-source software project that provides tools for analyzing genomic data, critical for understanding diseases at a molecular level.
Bioconductor's mission is to advance open-source software for biomedical research and genomic data analysis and ensure equitable access for researchers worldwide.
