This document provides an overview of bioinformatics resources from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). It describes NCBI search tools like EUtils and PubMed FTP for accessing literature and sequence data. Variation APIs and other tools for analyzing genomic variants are also mentioned. The document promotes upcoming bioinformatics training opportunities at NCBI and lists example problems related to neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) that could be addressed using NCBI resources, such as identifying biological networks affected by NF2 mutations or clustering NF2 patient subpopulations.
