National Bioinformatics Infrastructure Sweden - NBIS - EGI
EGI collaborates with NBIS, a distributed national research infrastructure for bioinformatics research in Sweden.
www.egi.euI don’t have live access to current news in this moment, but here’s what I can share based on reliable sources up to 2025:
-
NBIS overview: National Bioinformatics Infrastructure Sweden (NBIS) is a distributed national research infrastructure that provides advanced bioinformatics support, training, and infrastructure for life sciences in Sweden. It serves as the Swedish node in ELIXIR and is hosted by SciLifeLab across multiple sites (Lund, Gothenburg, Linköping, Stockholm, Uppsala, Umeå).[3][5][7][9]
-
Recent organizational and activity highlights (through 2024–2025): NBIS coordinates bioinformatics support nationally, maintains collaborations with major Swedish universities, SciLifeLab platforms, and national compute resources, and contributes to data management, training, and development of high‑throughput data analysis capabilities. It also continues to participate as Sweden’s ELIXIR node and to work on sensitive data handling (e.g., federated EGA) and data integration initiatives.[2][5][7][3]
-
Notable roles and services: NBIS offers expert bioinformatics analysis, data management, bioimage informatics, imaging AI support, and software/tools development; it also provides capacity for education and training to researchers in life sciences across Sweden.[5][7][3]
If you’d like, I can search for the very latest NBIS news from specific sources (e.g., SciLifeLab, NBIS’s own site, ELIXIR news) and summarize the newest developments with citations. I can also pull a quick snapshot of NBIS’s current structure and services from their latest public pages. Would you like me to do that?
Would you also prefer news specifically about NBIS’s funding, new partnerships, or training programs in the latest update?
