The Bioinformatics Consulting Core (BCC) in the Cancer Research Division at Peter Mac provides a range of services and know-how for data analysis.

BIOINFORMATICS CONSULTING CORE FACILITY

The aim of BCC is to provide all levels of bioinformatics support to research laboratories within Peter Mac and, more broadly, within the Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre (VCCC). The team of bioinformaticians and postdoctoral scientists at BCC work alongside laboratory and clinical researchers and contribute to their experimental design, grant applications and the analysis and publication of genomic and transcriptomic data. Data types analysed by the core include whole-exome sequencing, targeted re-sequencing, RNA-sequencing, ChIP-sequencing, NanoString and various types of microarray data.
