The Genomic and Bioinformatics GenoBiRD infrastructure include two modules

The Genomic core facility, Thanks to the expertise of a dedicated and highly qualified staff, the genomics core facility advise, propose and develop genomic services: high-throughput sequencing (genomes, exomes, gene capture…), high-throughput genotyping, transcriptome study (RNA-Seq,DGE-Seq and expression microarrays), and capillary sequencing.
Trained users also have direct access to state of the art equipments.

The bioinformatics core facility BiRD, co-managed by the ITX and the LS2N, employs six computational biologists. BiRD advises, proposes and develops genomic and bioinformatics services: high-throughput sequencing for variant detection, high-throughput genotyping, transcriptome studies as a service to academic and private laboratories. For all of these applications, BiRD has expertise in large-scale data analysis and developed dedicated bioinformatics workflows that standardize processing from raw data to biological significance.
The core facility is supported by a dedicated computing and storage infrastructure (1456 cores, 5.5 TB RAM, 600 TB storage), directly connected to the sequencers and allowing remote access to all SysMics members, regardless of their host institution.
These services are supported by a dedicated computing and storage infrastructure directly connected to the sequencers, accessible remotely through several and open to the scientific community regardless of its supervision.

These services in genomics and bioinformatics are open to academics and private laboratories.

Expertise

The multiple applications in genomics and bioinformatics are not limited in terms of species studied. They can be applied in the fields of the sea, agronomy, environment and health.

Equipments

Each course consists of a theoretical part and practical exercises.
