Cap de Plataforma
The IDIBELL Bioinformatics Unit (IBU) started the activity in 2018. Its mission is to provide all researchers at the Bellvitge Campus scientific consulting, methodological support and technological resources on bioinformatics to enhance both the number and the quality of research projects where omics data are involved. We also offer standard services to external community. Our staff has over 15 years’ experience in experimental design, omics and integrative data analyses, databases and ontologies management, pipelines and tools development, as well as a long experience in teaching formal education and training activities in the fields of omics data and bioinformatics.

Services

We assist researchers by providing:

Consultancy
  • Experimental design
  • Bioinformatics methodology
  • Bioinformatics software
  • Grant application: service quotation, sample size, planning of methods, etc.
  • Custom Service
Data analysis
  • Omics data: genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics, etc.
  • Data mining and analysis using public datasets
  • Combine clinical or biomedical information with omics data
  • Construction of prediction/classification models using learning techniques
Software development
  • Workflows or pipelines
  • Databases and ontologies
  • Custom tool
Training activities
