About Us
Sigenae - an INRAE bioinformatic platform
Sigenae is an INRAE bioinformatic platform specialized in animal genomic data processing. Seven engineers located in Toulouse and Jouy-en-Josas help biologists to extract scientific knowledge from datasets generated by high-throughput sequencers and genotypers.
- The team takes part in different national and international projects such as
1000 bull genomes,
1000 goat genomes,
FAANG,
BovReg,
STURGEoNOMICS,
GenoFish.
Our main contributions are data processing, training and software development. - We have participated in and published open source software packages such as FROGS, jVenn, DRAP, D-Genies, NG6, RNAbrowse.
- We also maintain published databases like Phylofish and SSturgeon.
The team members co-authored numerous scientific publications.
