We deeply appreciate having such a remarkable cloud service at our disposal for academic purposes. Without it, finding a readily available alternative would be quite challenging. ...

Interactions in the bacterial pathobiome associated with crown gall disease: coexistence or competition?

The de.NBI cloud provided us with the easy accessible and scalable working environment which we could freely adapt to serve our research needs. When necessary, the de.NBI support team provided us with prompt assistance. Taken together, de.NBI cloud have proven to be indispensable for our bioinformatics analyses, and enabled planning of new research projects. ...

Transposon element annotation in the hordeum species

In our research, we assembled and annotated genomes of 25 species within the Hordeum genus, a task demanding significant computational resources due to large genome sizes. The de.NBI Cloud platform provided crucial support, offering an efficient computing environment and robust resources, enabling us to make progress in annotating transposon elements and ensuring the project's success. ...

SPAAM Summer School 2023: Introduction to Ancient Metagenomics

The workshop functionality of de.NBI Cloud has been extremely helpful in maximising the accessibility of a global cohort students to consistent software environments to ensure everyone starts on a level playing field. In particular the desktop environments accessible through a web-browser were a great help due to a large number of students with limited command-line experience. ...

de.NBI BioHackathon SpaceHack project

How did it work? It was fantastic! I have never organised an event with shared compute that worked so well with regards to helpful consultation, accessibility, scalability and flexibility. We are already organising the follow up of our hackathon project on the de.NBI cloud, and strongly encourage other hackathon and workshop organisers to do the same. ...

Computational solutions from data science and machine learning to solve biomedical problems

Our research focuses on developing computational solutions from data science and machine learning to solve biomedical problems. In addition, we aim to develop new methods and algorithms, e.g., for analyzing (meta-)genomic and (meta-)transcriptomic data of microorganisms ...
