Sequencing platform of Paris – Genom’IC Institut Cochin
GENOM’IC is the technological platform of the Cochin Institute (INSERM U1016 – CNRS UMR8104 – Université Paris Descartes) open to the entire academic, industrial and hospital scientific community. Specialized in the study of the genome and the transcriptome, GENOM’IC particularly supports transcriptome analysis projects based on DNA chips and high-though put sequencing (NGS) by combining the production of quality data and their bioinformatic analysis. GENOM’IC also collaborates in innovative projects by offering its technical skills and by ensuring constant technological monitoring. The quality certification initiated in 2012 guarantees the quality of the experiments performed (ISO9001 certified) and the data produced, and enables us to meet our customers’ requirements.
The team is composed of 7 people, engineers, engineering assistants, technicians, with skills in biology and bioinformatics.
