This lecture will use introduce bioinformatics methods, principles and tools for building and maintaining information resources in life sciences. A bioinformatics resource is a repository or platform designed to store, integrate, and analyze biological data, with a focus on specific types of information like sequences, structures, or quantitative measurements, often integrated with metadata for biological context. The principles and pratices of database design, data curation, and continuous updates will be examplified from the perspective of the cancer genomics resource Progenetix and protein abundance resource PaxDb.
