IFB Cloud Infrastructure
From Big Data to Big Insights. Cloud for collaborative
and reproducible data life science.
36 Bioinformatics platforms
IFB consolidates French National centres,
services and bioinformatic resources into one Federation.
Bioinformatics Training
IFB offers training in bioinformatics for
biomedical and life sciences researchers
The French Institute of Bioinformatics (referred to as IFB hereafter) is a national service infrastructure in bioinformatics that was created following the call for proposals, “National Infrastructures in Biology and Health”, of the “Investments for the Future” initiative (ANR-11-INBS-0013).
This project gathers together the bioinformatics platforms of the main French research organizations, CNRS, INRA, INRIA, CEA and INSERM, as well as CIRAD, the Pasteur and Curie Institutes, and the French universities. There are currently 30 platforms grouped into six regional centers that span the whole of France.
IFB's principal mission is to provide basic services and resources in bioinformatics for scientists and engineers working in the life sciences.
IFB is the French node of the European research infrastructure, ELIXIR.
IFB's partners in the French Bioinformatics community are the French Society of Bioinformatics (SFBI) and the CNRS network for Bioinformatics research (GdR BIM). A list of French laboratories having a Bioinformatics activity is available here.
L'IFB, en partenariat avec l'Université Paris Diderot, propose une nouvelle formation dédiée à l'apprentissage des techniques et outils propres à la bioinformatique intégrative.

En réponse à l'article du canard enchaîné du 2 mai 2018, “Ca ne vaut pas un cloud” , le collège de direction de l'IFB a rédigé un article intitulé "Bien plus qu’une poignée de clouds, une boîte à outils pour la biologie"
En savoir plus
L’appel à projets-pilotes constitue la première action du work package “bioinformatique intégrative”, et vise à obtenir des résultats à relativement court terme en s’appuyant sur le know-how existant de différentes structures du PIA (infrastructures, cohortes, plans).
