The Interfaculty Bioinformatics Unit (IBU) at the University of Bern partners with researchers to unlock insights from next-generation sequencing and genomics data — from study design through to publication-ready results.
We serve the three Life Science faculties and Insel University Hospital with expert support in data analysis, pipeline development, and project planning for large-scale sequencing experiments. Our high-performance computing cluster and extensive software ecosystem power even the most demanding analytical challenges.
As active contributors to major interdisciplinary research projects, we maintain our own research programme, develop novel methods for high-throughput data analysis, and build robust pipelines and visualization tools that make complex datasets accessible.
We also shape the next generation of bioinformaticians through our joint MSc in Bioinformatics & Computational Biology (University of Bern / University of Fribourg), specialized courses, and hands-on research training.
