Objective The main objective of this service of massive analysis of genomic data is the development of research projects and the deployment of services aimed at bringing Tenerife and, by extension, the whole of the Canary Islands, closer to the implementation of Personalised Medicine. This service is being structured through the creation of an area of ITER, the Genomics Division, in three areas: in recruiting staff with the right professional profile; in the installation of a molecular biology laboratory adapted for massive DNA sequencing; and in the adaptation of the teideHPC high-performance computing infrastructure for the use of bioinformatics data…
