Christophe Blanchet<\/a><\/b>,
\nFrench Institute of Bioinformatics, Gif-sur-Yvette, France<\/p>\n

\nChristophe Blanchet, PhD in Bioinformatics\/Biochemistry, is a member of the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), working at the French Institute of Bioinformatics (IFB).
\nHe is involved with distributed computing for life sciences since 2001. From 2004 to 2010, he was member of the European EGEE Grid infrastructure, chairing the Bioinformatics Applications Activity (NA4-Bioinformatics). From 2005 to 2010, he took an active role in the Bioinformatics Network of Excellence EMBRACE (European Model for Bioinformatics Research and Community Education, EU-FP6). In the StratusLab project he defined requirements and evaluated developments of bioinformatics use cases in the cloud.
\nChristophe Blanchet is now leading the e-infrastructure team of the IFB.<\/p>\n

Bioinformatics Cloud Services for Life Sciences<\/b>, Thursday October 15, 2015, at 9:15
\nMany research infrastructures, producing huge quantities of data to be analyzed, are now available. These data require large-size public reference databases and many software tools for their analysis. In the same way, the interfaces to be built cover the whole spectrum from the command line to the web portal. The French Institute of Bioinformatics (IFB) aims to provide scientists with bioinformatics services relying on the required computing and storage capacities, while providing a user-friendly solution. A selection of bioinformatics software and pipelines have been integrated as turnkey cloud services, now available to scientists.<\/p>\n
