Expertise in ‘omics, programming, and data analysis at your service.

We offer a multitude of computationally-heavy services, from large-scale analyses to common processing and analysis steps that require programming expertise. We perform the analyses on high-performance Linux computing clusters. Use the button on the right and schedule a meeting with us to discuss a project idea. We can help your project move forward with our experience in the fields of genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, proteomics,  metabolomics and image analysis.

The expertise of our bioinformatics specialists covers several types of analyses, for example:

  • Taxonomic analyses using 16S rRNA gene, 18S rRNA gene and ITS (internal transcribed spacer) metabarcoding
  • Metagenome and pangenome analysis of water, terrestrial and host related microbiomes

  • Genome assembly and annotation of Bacteria, Archaea and Eukaryotes

  • Gene expression profiling and comparative transcriptome analysis

  • Analysis of protein-DNA interactions (CHIP-Seq, ATAC-Seq)

  • Large-scale DNA variants identification, annotation, and interpretation

  • Untargeted and Targeted metabolomics and lipidomics profiling and statistical analysis

  • Quantitative Proteomics- MS based Methods Data Analysis

  • Protein- Protein interaction Network and their functional enrichment analysis

  • Image analysis on histology slides via machine learning (digital pathology)

  • Spectral analysis of absorbance, luminescence and fluorescence

  • Data analysis for Raman microscopy
