Bioinformatics

The bioinformatics research group focuses on the analysis of data from high-throughput genetic technologies in collaboration with a diverse range of medical research groups. By being embedded in a medical research environment we produce highly relevant methods and analysis for a range of projects.
 
Our research focuses include:

  1. Analysis of RNA-seq and ChIP-seq and understanding the regulation of gene expression in disease
  2. Epigenetic regulation including DNA methylation microarrays
  3. Detecting disease causing variants in the human genome using high-throughput sequencing technologies.
