The National Center for Integrative Biomedical Informatics          NCIBI RSS News Feed

The National Center for Integrative Biomedical Informatics (NCIBI) is one of seven National Centers for Biomedical Computing (NCBC) in the NIH Roadmap. NCIBI is based at the University of Michigan and is part of the UM Center for Computational Medicine and Biology (CCMB). Brian Athey is the Principal Investigator for the NCIBI.

The mission of the National Center for Integrative Biomedical Informatics (NCIBI), founded in October 2005, is to create targeted knowledge environments for molecular biomedical research that help guide experiments and enable new insights from the analysis of complex diseases.
