Know more

The iBio (Informatics-BIOinformatics) platform provides support for statistical and bioinformatics analyses of large biological datasets.

 The iBio platform has developed skills in:

-genomic, metagenomic, transcriptomic, phenotypic and metabolic studies.

-phylogenetic/phylogenomic approaches.

-the use of multivariate analysis tools such as Principal Component Analysis, co-inertia analysis and co-occurrence/co-exclusion network analysis within microbial communities from various ecosystems.

The iBio platform is staffed by a lecturer and a design engineer, mainly based at LyonTech-la Doua (office 13.037, 3rd floor of the Mendel building, Villeurbanne).

How to find us :

-The services of the iBio platform are accessible only to members of the Unit.

Put all requests in writing, because keeping a record of requests means you can group together common requests, organize work time, distinguish between major projects and one-off requests, and build up a repertoire of proposed solutions.

-Contact the platform before submitting projects to funding agencies if these projects will require the type of analyses supported by the platform.
