This annual report (2015-2016) provides a continuing view on the position of the Cushing/Whitney Medical Library End-user Bioinformatics Program. Besides the report on the three main areas of training, resources and tools, and consultations, it contains the results of the recent assessment “Information and Needs Assessment for Biomedical Research in the Omics Era” During this period, 741 Yale affiliates attended (out of 1240 registered) the end-user bioinformatics training and presentations organized by the Medical Library.  This year, the number of Ingenuity Pathway Analysis and MetaCore accounts continued to grow. Consequently, the number and length of research support consultations (130 researchers …

The decreased cost of high-throughput technologies has enabled its use as the main research methods to study biological processes and disorders. In order to understand the relevance of the data generated by these methods, the researcher needs mining and integrating the enormous amount of biomedical information and knowledge contained in the text of the scientific literature and biomedical databases. Accordingly, the ability to access and examine molecular data should not be restricted to bioinformaticians or those with exceptional computer skills. In May 2014, the Cushing/Whitney Medical Library began to provide end-user bioinformatics support to the biomedical researchers of the Yale …
