Your Partners in Bioinformatics

Our bioinformatics team consists of expert bioinformaticians catering to our clients working in a broad range of applications.

Covering a wide range of expertise in programming, statistics and biology, the team are capable of offering any commonly requested bioinformatics service. 

In addition to our pipelines on the right, our team also offers Custom Analysis Options:

  • Metagenomics analysis

  • Genome and transcriptome assembly and annotation

  • CRISPR target checking

  • Methylation (arrays, targeted and whole-genome bisulfite sequencing, PacBio long read sequencing)

  • Structural variant calling of whole genome sequencing data

  • Population genetics

  • Multilocus sequence typing (MLST)

  • ChIP-Seq

  • Cancer studies: SNP, Indel and CNV detection, tumour purity, structural variant detection

Extensive range of custom analysis

All of our custom contracts receive thorough data exploration and quality control. Our experienced bioinformaticians will supply a tailored analysis to meet your project goals. Data are summarised to the most important features and documented in a detailed and reproducible report.

Bioinformatics consultation service

We are excited to be able to provide a dedicated bioinformatician to work on your project for a fixed time period, eg. 3 months. Benefits of this service include:

  • Flexible budget for a project grant

  • Ease of hiring an experienced bioinformatician

  • Access to AGRF’s internal infrastructure support

Fast Turnaround on Low-Cost Automated Pipeline Services

DNA-Seq – Variant identification on WGS, WES and targeted resequencing, and ISO:15189 accredited clinical genomics (for germline arrays, targeted-panels, exome and WGS)

RNA-Seq – RNA profiling, differential gene expression, small RNA discovery, allelic expression analysis, isoform discovery, alternative splice variants, novel transcripts and gene fusions

Diversity Profiling – Microbial profiling with 16S, 18S and ITS targets

Genotyping – GBS, microarray, Illumina arrays and microsatellite detection

Our bioinformatics team operates with a focus on maximal data extraction and utility, working closely with clients to design your analysis tailored to your needs. Wherever possible we aim for open-source tools that have been validated and well-documented. We strive to use best-practice and current techniques and maintain our position at the forefront of innovation through attending local seminars and conferences, and remaining up to date with relevant literature. 

Advance your genomic research.
