Miscellaneous collaborations with Biologists and scientific support
Many more tools than BLAST and PROSITE exist but biologists are either unaware of them or have not enough time or skills to teach themselves about the advantages
and pitfalls of methods or the theoretical background that is needed to thoroughly interpret results. Bioinformatics can also be viewed as a support science and should
deliver. As part of this endavour, we have supported biologists through brief discussions, smaller project, joint supervision of project students and longer collaboration.
Some of them resulted in joint publications, others received acknowledgements and hopefully most of them were useful in some way.
