What we do
In the Bioinformatics Core Facility (BCF), we promote trans-disciplinary collaborations between research teams in medicine, molecular biology, genetics, genomics, statistics, and bioinformatics. In particular, we carry out analyses of biomedical-genomics data with a focus on biomarker studies in cancer research, building on our specific expertise in statistical methods for genomics data analysis. Recently, we have concentrated on molecular heterogeneity in cancer, colorectal cancer, single cells transcriptomics, genetic association studies, metagenomics and other new technologies. We are open to any kind of new research direction.
