A scalable and flexible framework for analyzing large-scale genomic data

A scalable and flexible framework for analyzing large-scale genomic data

Next generation sequencing (NGS) has fundamentally transformed basic and applied life sciences research providing new insights into our understanding of health and disease. Nowadays, a typical NGS-based experiment can produce vast amounts of data of different types and complexities that need to be managed, integrated and analyzed for meaningful interpretation. Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field that combines computer science, statistics and life sciences and is a crucial component of genomics data analysis. We have leveraged the technological advancements in the field of computational biology and genomics to develop a comprehensive suite of bioinformatics pipelines for NGS data analysis. We use state-of-the-art bioinformatics algorithms and pipelines to deliver high-quality and publication-ready figures and analysis reports for our projects.

In this webinar, Dr. Kushal Suryamohan will provide an overview of our framework for scalable and reproducible analysis and visualization of a broad range of genomics data types including whole genome sequencing, transcriptomics, single cell genomics, immune profiling and genome assembly and annotation.
