Our interests span several areas of bioinformatics and computational biology, from biological databases and software development to the analysis of genomic, proteomic, and structural data. We are also actively involved in international research infrastructures, consortia, and collaborative initiatives.

Our main aim is to integrate the development of novel methods and their application to biologically relevant issues. In order to evaluate the performance of our tools, we regularly participate in international competitions like:
Critical Assessment of Techniques for Protein Structure Prediction (CASP)
Critical Assessment of Genome Interpretation (CAGI)
Critical Assessment of Function Annotation experiment (CAFA)
