Extensive analysis of sequence data requires organized screening for sequence contamination, database development, advanced alignment protocols, and sophisticated analytical methods. We will take sequence data in a raw format from a sequencing facility and perform all of these functions in an organized and progressive manner.

Using a phylogeny package as a “black box” without a full understanding of the computational theory behind it can easily lead to over-interpretation of the data or poor data mining.  Data are frequently under-analyzed because researchers lack the “phylodynamic” knowledgebase to exhaustively extract evolutionary and population genetic information from their molecular sequences. Not only are we well versed in sequences analysis protocols, but we work consistently in developing new methods for analysis, including phylogenetic, migration, population dynamics, amino acid signature, and other molecular evolutionary protocols. 

Often biology labs do not have access to the computer capabilities necessary to run calculations within a reasonable time frame.  We will perform these services and provide you with an in-depth description of the analysis including publication quality figures.

Once analysis has been performed, bioinformatics software pipelines can be created to automate future analysis of large amounts of sequence data.

We are experts in the field of viral and other pathogen sequence analysis. Please review our list of publications to see if we can assist in your specific research project.
