BioInsight will support data generation in three main ways: enabling large national research initiatives, working with corporate partners to develop valuable data assets and facilitating large-scale federated data networks. This includes expanding beyond traditional genomics to include multiomic and advanced biological data types, such as perturb-seq.
BioInsight is designed to harness all available multimodal data, creating the tools and resources needed to help customers and partners achieve meaningful results faster. With these tools, scientists can more quickly identify patterns, discover new drug targets, and improve disease diagnosis and treatment. In addition to developing its own tools and models, Illumina looks to partner with industry leaders to enable a broad ecosystem of tools to be developed, leveraging its data assets.
