Data science
The Data Science platform provides the Kennedy Institute with internationally competitive capabilities for computational biology research. It supports research activity in data management, computational genomics, statistical genetics, metagenomics, computational and mathematical biology, and clinical trials. These studies are conducted by specialist computational biology research groups, as well as by research groups working in other areas who incorporate computational approaches into their analyses.
Research is supported by an in-house single cell and spatial genomics facility, access to a state-of-the-art high-performance research computing cluster and dedicated infrastructure to manage, curate and mine patient data.
