Bioinformatics Resources Core

The Bioinformatics Resource Core (BRC) is a cost-recovery facility within the UW Biotechnology Center (UWBC) that is dedicated to assisting researchers with their data analysis needs. We specialize in experimental design and the running of standardized pipelines so that you can devote your time to interpreting your data instead of processing it. Allow us to provide you with fast and reliable results by utilizing our pipeline services. Please use our request form if you would like us to process your data through one of our standardized pipelines.
