Clinical and Translational Bioinformatics

Bioinformàtica translacional a Vall d'Hebron Institut de Recerca

The group’s aim is to develop bioinformatic tools that serve to analyse and interpret high-performance data in the clinical and biomedical field. We work alongside other groups working on specific conditions, at the same time as we work to achieve a global understanding of the molecular bases of Mendelian inheritance diseases.

Description

The group is working on developing biomarkers, with the help of bioinformatic tools, and on the prediction of pathological mutations. In this last field, they are already applying the tools and approaches developed in specific pathologies, as a natural step towards developing personalised medicine.
