As biomarker discovery and validation are key focus areas in medical research, we regularly receive requests to support our clients with bioinformatics analyses specifically for these purposes.

The Challenges of Biomarker Discovery

The vast amounts of ‘omics data generated within this domain present computational challenges for analysing and interpreting the data. Fortunately for our clients, we are able to resolve these challenges for them. We do this by providing robust analyses, using the most appropriate computational tools to identify the relevant biological outputs. Then, we produce fully interactive analysis reports which provide a clear interpretation of the data. What’s more, our bioinformaticians will always walk you through our reports, providing full explanations and answering any questions.

How We Support Biomarker Discovery With Bioinformatics

The below presentation from our Technical Director Max Bylesjö, discusses how Fios Genomics supports biomarker discovery with bioinformatics in more detail. This presentation highlights:

Biomarker discovery and validation as key focus areas in medical research
The vast amounts of ‘omics data being generated in this domain, and the computational challenges of analysing and interpreting them
The importance of careful use of appropriate computational tools in identifying relevant biological output
Finally, Fios Genomics’ role in this area, illustrated with an oncology biomarker case study

At Fios, when it comes to analysing ‘omics data we pride ourselves on providing a deep analysis of your data, quickly. We can do this regardless of how large or complex your data set is and we are fully capable of integrating multiple different data types for analysis. We can also further integrate your ‘omics data sets with other publicly available data.
