Turku Centre for Biotechnology

Structural Bioinformatics (SB)

The main goal of the Structural Bioinformatics Group is to apply methods and techniques of bioinformatics to study biological macromolecules, their interactions and function. We work in close collaboration with experimental groups and are able to provide structure-related analysis and prediction in different biological systems. We work closely with the CSC Finnish IT Center for Science, the Finnish national supercomputing centre and the Structural Bioinformatics Laboratory at the Åbo Akademi University.

High-throughput Bioinformatics (HTB)

Bioinformatics complements experimental genomics and transcriptomics by storing, analysing and integrating data and generating hypotheses to guide the design of new experiments to further elucidate gene function. We provide services in the analysis of microarray and deep sequencing data. In addition to providing data analysis and data integration services we have robust methods for the design of experiments and novel microarrays for both diagnostics and biological marker selection. Our analysts are supported by robust super-computing facilities and state-of-the-art software. Team members are engaged in the ongoing development of advanced analysis tools and research on generating novel approaches for the analysis of high-throughput data sets. Read more about our services.
