The Bioinformatics Research Core (BRC) offers bioinformatics analysis and custom pipelines for sequencing and other biological data, including genome analysis (whole genome sequencing, exome sequencing), transcriptome analysis (bulk-/single-cell RNA-seq, CLIP-seq, CAGE-seq, long-read sequencing), epigenome analysis (DNA methylation, histone modification, transcription factor binding), and proteomics data.

Core Description

The BRC provides computing resources, bioinformatics services, and expertise to Center of Regenerative Medicine (CRM) faculty members, and collaborates with other biomedical researchers to advance the scientific research of regenerative medicine.

The BRC offers state-of-the-art technologies for working with sequencing data and other biological data – from acquisition and storage to analysis and visualization. Our resources are secure and standards-compliant. We take pride in being research collaborators who can work with you through all stages of a project.

We hope you consider making the BRC your research partner! If you have any questions or want to talk more about a project, please reach out to us for a complimentary consultation.

Services

  • Bioinformatics analysis: We work with research scientists (faculty, staff, post-docs and graduate students) to provide analysis of their high-throughput sequencing, microarray, and other biological data.
  • Consulting prior to experiments: We will meet with you to discuss the types of analysis and support bioinformatics can provide and help design experiments so that analysis is possible.
  • Custom bioinformatics analysis: We help develop custom applications to enhance research through web applications for data analysis, custom pipelines, databases and/or visualization, and web services interfaces to large databases, and custom analysis tools.
  • Training: Coming soon
