To provide comprehensive experimental design, analysis and visualization to research scientists in a timely fashion.

Successful projects utilizing high throughput technologies, such as next generation sequencing or microarray analysis, rely on a robust IT infrastructure and effective data analysis pipeline to process voluminous data from heterogeneous sources. The Bioinformatics Core at BRI, consisting of PhD computational biologists and biostatisticians, is actively engaged in developing and applying sophisticated analytical methods for biomarker identification and validation, and the elucidation of mechanisms in autoimmune diseases.

The Bioinformatics Core has access to a high-performance computing infrastructure and specialized software to support processing, analyzing and visualizing data from heterogeneous sources, including BRI and VMMC laboratories.
