Bioinformatics

Our Services

    • From raw sequencing or assay outputs to high-quality, analysis-ready datasets.

  • Comprehensive analysis of genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and epigenomics data to uncover key biological insights, identify biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and mechanisms of disease.

  • High-resolution characterisation of cell populations and tissue organisation to support precision medicine research.

  • Structure-based and data-driven discovery approaches, including protein structure prediction (AlphaFold), target validation, and chemoinformatics for hit-to-lead optimisation.

  • Bespoke analysis and interpretation tailored to project needs, with end-to-end support.

Capabilities

Our multidisciplinary team of bioinformaticians, data scientists, and domain experts provide tailored support and collaborative problem-solving for academic, clinical, and industry partners.

We leverage high-performance computing and advanced analytics infrastructure to deliver rapid, reliable, and reproducible results across a wide range of biomedical data types.

Key FMI capabilities include: 

  • Scalable workflows for large-scale biomedical data.

  • Advanced data visualisation and interpretation for decision-making.
