From the Center for Genomics and Bioinformatics website:
The CGB was created in 2000 by the Office of the V/P for Research and the College of Arts and Sciences IU, Bloomington. It has since received regular support from the School of Informatics and the Department of Biology. The CGB has also received crucial financial support from two Lilly Endowment, Inc. awards to Indiana University: The Indiana Genomics Initiative and the Indiana METACyt Initiative.
Current CGB staff includes 30 full-time scientists and programmers and an administrative staff of 3. In addition, the CGB supports collaborative projects that currently involve 13 other scientists from the departments of Biology and Mathematics, and the School of Informatics. The CGB’s active seminar programs include frequent Visiting Speakers, weekly informal seminars (the “CGB Roundtables”), and regular workshops on special topics.
The CGB occupies temporary spaces in Jordan Hall and Myers Hall: Administrative offices in Jordan Hall 063 and 059, the Bioinformatics and Computing groups in Jordan Hall Room 044, the Core Computing Facility occupies JH025, and the Genomics laboratory is on the first floor of Myers Hall (MY160/162). Projects occupy a number of other spaces, including the Insect Cell Culture lab (JHA316) and the DGRC Vector Lab (JH340).
