  The Computational Biology Unit is a cross-functional Unit that collaborates with the Departments of the Centro Ricerche e Innovazione (CRI) in computational data analysis tasks and assists them to achieve their research goals. The Computational Biology Unit includes 11 staff scientists, 2 postdocs and 3 PhD students. The research fields covered by the Computational Biology Unit include assembly and annotation of complex genomes (mainly from insects and plants, but also from bacteria), NGS data analysis for genomic typing of plant cultivars, metagenomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics data analysis, multi –omics data integration, big data management and analysis. Reporting to the CRI Director, my responsibilities include: designing the strategic research goals of the Unit; aligning the team with the objectives of the CRI; coordinating the activities of the associates ensuring that projects receive the needed support; managing the acquisition, configuration and maintenance of the HPC infrastructure; fostering the collaboration with external research groups.
