Additional Co-Authors include the Genomics Education Alliance
Genomics and other areas of biology rely heavily on the tools of bioinformatics, data science, and computing. Bringing these tools into the classroom can be daunting – both in determining which tools to use and managing their use. The Genomics Education Alliance (GEA) is a newly NSF-funded research collaboration network (RCN-UBE #1827130). This alliance has brought together several well-known educators and educational projects. Resources in development by GEA include a core set of computational tools and we will demonstrate how we have used CyVerse resources to make classroom that make using bioinformatics in the classroom a more manageable experience.
