BasePair is a bioinformatics deployment company. We are on a mission to make genomic data analysis ubiquitous to the scientific community so that the promise of the genomic revolution can become a realityOne of the biggest challenges preventing this now arguably lies not with how the data gets generated and processed, but who is able to perform the analysis and understand what the resulting data means. Limiting this work to a select few, whether through choice or more often because of technology restrictions, especially for routine analyses, leads to reduced efficiency in R&D teams, longer times to market for assay manufacturers and increased turnaround times in clinical settings.What is needed is a software platform that democratizes not just access to, but analysis and interpretation of, genomic data. Crucially we believe that this needs to provide the flexibility to do so in a way that allows organizations to connect to and leverage the compute and storage resources in their own cloud account. When that happens, they remain connected to the other analytical capabilities offered by their cloud provider and can benefit from economies of scale by running everything through the same account. From there, end users with the appropriate domain expertise should be able to rerun the same workflows in a controlled setting and use a multitude of inbuilt visualization tools and reports to make sense of the data.
