Bioinformatics Consulting and Training Platform (BISCUITS)

Turning complex data into biological insights

The Bioinformatics Consulting and Training Platform (BISCUITS) develops and applies computational approaches to understand how cells are organised, regulated and altered in health and disease. Using next-generation sequencing, single-cell genomics and spatial transcriptomics, we turn complex genomic datasets into meaningful biological insights. Working with scientists, clinicians and technology platforms, our research spans discovery and translational applications. We also build capability through bioinformatics training and collaborative research.
