The goal of the Massachusetts General Hospital Bioinformatics Consortium is to provide bioinformatics and wider genomics service, consulting, education, and training for biological, preclinical and clinical investigators at MGB. Combined with our wet-lab capabilities for next-generation sequencing, the Bioinformatics Consortium provides a fully integrated resource for genomics studies in both preclinical and clinical settings. We help our partners design and execute experimental or clinical data generation and management, as well as implement best practices for quantitative analysis in order to produce powerful and relevant biomedical data.
