About
Understanding how to find, explore and interpret biological sequence information is an important skill for students and researchers working in molecular biology, biotechnology, genetics, genomics and bioinformatics.
This beginner-friendly educational resource introduces learners to genes and biological sequences through NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information). It can help new users become familiar with the types of information available through NCBI and understand how these resources can be used while working with biological and genomic data.
The resource is particularly relevant for students who are beginning to explore DNA sequences, genes, genomes, proteins and bioinformatics databases. It can also serve as a useful starting point for researchers who are new to NCBI and want to understand how to navigate its resources more effectively.
NCBI provides a wide range of publicly accessible biological databases and research tools used by the scientific community. Learning how to locate reliable gene and sequence information can be valuable for activities such as literature research, sequence exploration, molecular biology projects, genomics studies and bioinformatics analysis.
