bioinformatics (bioinfo) platform
The Bioinformatics Platform provides top of the line bioinformatics services to the research groups of the LIH and other collaborating partners.
activities
The Bioinformatics platform focuses on analysis centered around multi-omics data, their integration, statistical analysis, developing predictive models and presentation of the results in relevant figures. When needed, additional clinical data are considered and integrated with multi-omics data. The Bioinformatics platform also provides training in a variety of disciplines: biostatistics, R programming, data science, transcriptomics data analysis and machine learning.
Projects & clinical trials
The group members contributed to the following research projects at LIH in the past two years:
- “A diagnostic test to improve surveillance and care of COVID-19 patients” (COVIRNA), EU Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme, 2020-2023.
- “Glioma longitudinal analysis in Luxembourg: ex vivo and in vivo functional profiling of recurrent gliomas” (GLASS-LUX), FNR, 2021-2024.
- “Predicting the severity of COVID-19 infection” (Predi-COVID), FNR, Andre Losch Foundation, Luxembourg Institute of Health, The Government of Luxembourg.
- “Decomposition of mixed transcriptomes for classification of heterogeneous tumour samples (DEMICS)”, Luxembourg’s National Research Fund (FNR), 2018-2020.
- “Peptide, protein, single-cell map of the renin-angiotensin system in Covid-19” (RAS CoV-2), FNR Fast Track program, 2020
