Biologists estimate that there are about 5 to 100 million species of organisms living on Earth today. Evidence from morphological, biochemical, and gene sequence data suggests that all organisms on Earth are genetically related, and the genealogical...

DNA code of 100,000 patients over the next five years

India's first Big Data paltform for genomics data analysis

The Human Genome Project led to the development of a wide array of technologies to screen the genome and its products (genes, proteins, metabolites) and molecules that interact with these products (chemicals, RNAi). The existence of these tools...

Researchers discover the genetic imprints and signatures left by DNA-damaging processes that lead to cancer.

The spectacular advances of the last few years resulted in the rapid analysis of the genome sequence of each individual. The biomedical world is now faced with the enormous challenges of assigning pathogenicity to each genomic variant, the...

Genomics has profoundly changed our way of conducting research in microbiology. The power of high–throughput DNA sequencing technologies, in particular the recent development of next generation sequencing allows researchers now to address an...

In our research, we combine computational methods with an experimental component in a unified effort to develop comprehensive descriptions of genetic systems of cellular controls, including those whose malfunctioning becomes the basis of genetic...
