The SIB Centre for Pathogen Bioinformatics offers expertise and services in pathogen data management and analysis, computational molecular epidemiology, and related multi-site project management. Launched in September 2024, the Centre is established as a multi-site, delocalized initiative, consisting of a Steering Board, an Advisory Board and a Focus Group.
