AfroBiomics supports research teams with reproducible bioinformatics, multi-omics analysis, scientific data strategy, and computational discovery.
Scientific capabilities
From curation and genomics to multi-omics and structural bioinformatics, our services are organised around the scientific outcomes research teams need.
01
End-to-end sequencing coordination through selected specialist laboratory partners, with AfroBiomics providing one scientific point of contact from project planning through analysis and interpretation.
02
Sequence quality assessment, genome reconstruction, annotation, comparative genomics, phylogenomics and targeted sequence interpretation.
End-to-end computational processing of genomic sequence data, including read assessment, assembly evaluation, annotation and reproducible reporting.
View serviceComparative analysis of genomes to characterise relatedness, population structure, genomic variation, gene content and evolutionary context.
View service03
Analysis of transcriptomic, proteomic and metabolomic data, including integration across molecular layers for biological interpretation and candidate discovery.
Reproducible analysis of bulk RNA-sequencing data to quantify expression, identify differential patterns and interpret biological pathways.

View serviceComputational prioritisation of molecular candidates using structure preparation, docking, interaction analysis and simulation-informed assessment.
View service06
Data curation, annotation, biostatistics, scientific visualisation, study design and evidence synthesis for rigorous life-science research.
Curation, harmonisation and scientific annotation of biological datasets for reproducible analysis, evidence integration and responsible AI development.
View serviceStatistical analysis, reproducible data workflows and publication-quality visualisation for biomedical, microbial and life-science research.
View serviceLaboratory products
Access laboratory chemicals, biological reagents, diagnostics, consumables, analytical products, equipment and specialised scientific supplies for research and institutional laboratories.
How we work
Analytical strategies are selected from the biological question, study design and evidence limitations.
Workflows, software, parameters and transformation steps are documented for traceability and reuse.
Results distinguish direct evidence, computational inference and remaining uncertainty.
