The Bioinformatics Unit of BioCity Turku focuses on the analysis of gene and protein data. The data analyses are useful in understanding various disease mechanisms. Cancer diseases and type 1 diabetes in adults, in particular, have been studied in the unit. The goal of the unit is to improve the diagnostics, treatment and predictability of complex diseases by combining computational, experimental and clinical research.
