National Center for Genome Analysis Support: Indiana University

Mission

The mission of NCGAS is to enable the biological research community of the US to analyze, understand, and make use of the vast amount of genomic information now available. NCGAS focuses particularly on transcriptome- and genome-level assembly, phylogenetics, metagenomics, transcriptomics, and community genomics.
