As a leading independent scientific foundation specializing in life science data, we provide sound, objective and results-oriented professional services and solutions to academics, clinical and industry partners in Switzerland and abroad. More about our 360° approach
We are data science experts, software developers, biocurators and computational biologists. We all share the same passion for data and the latest associated technologies. We believe that good data science needs a strong understanding of the nature of the data and the processes behind. Our experience spans the discovery steps following the generation of data, from R&D to applications. We are also able to leverage our national network of over 80 research and service groups to complement our core strengths and connect you with the right experts. The biological and biomedical data we regularly handle include:
- Single-cell and bulk RNAseq, TCRseq, CITEseq, ChIPseq, ATACseq
- Multiomics and spatial analyses: genomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, microbiomics
- Mass cytometry (CyTOF)
- Mass spectrometry
- Nanostring and protein arrays
- Molecular imaging
- Text
- Clinical (collected in routine, from clinical trials or cohorts)
- Etc.
We help bringing innovation and health forward with a service offering across sectors
We have over 20 years of experience in successfully delivering data science services to the academic and private sector, from collaborating in large European public-private partnerships to engaging in contracts or Innosuisse schemes with biotech/biomed start-ups, SMEs, pharma companies and hospitals. The applications of our work span oncology, infectious diseases, medical genetics, diabetes, obesity, cancer, arthritis, aging and more.
