Dutch national platform in integrated digital life sciences
We assemble public and private partners to jointly establish a digital competence centre on biological and molecular data in support of the Dutch health and biosciences communities.
We connect data generation facilities, data and computational infrastructure, data collections, software and models, data stewardship practices and FAIR-compliant standards.
The platform connects experts in digital life sciences and enables easy access to relevant data and tools, and supports advanced computational analysis and modelling via bioinformatics and computational modeling techniques, including machine learning and artificial intelligence.
