The GRISBI Platform (Grid Support for Bioinformatics) is a joined initiative between six French bioinformatics platforms: PRABI Lyon, GenOuest Rennes and Roscoff, CBiB Bordeaux, BIPS Strasbourg, CIB Lille, MIGALE Jouy-en-Josas, to set up a grid infrastructure devoted to serving the Bioinformatics community at the national level. GRISBI is the infrastructure activity of the French RENABI network (Réseau National des plate-formes de Bioinformatique) that is coordinating the thirteen national Bioinformatics centers. GRISBI is financially supported by the RENABI Network and by the IBISA initiative (National coordination of the Infrastructures in Biology, Health and Agronomy). GRISBI has been labelled “IBISA ‘s National Platform” in 2008.
The main goal of GRISBI is to gather Bionformatics computing resources at the national level to make possible challenging bioinformatics applications dealing with large scale systems: comparative genomics and genome annotation, system biology, protein function prediction, molecular interaction like protein-protein or DNA-protein, … The six core centres will share and mutualize their existing resources with grid software components: storage and computing resources, but also database and software resources.

GenOuest is a bioinformatics platform hosted by INRIA Rennes Bretagne-Atlantique center and IRISA. This platform acted primarily as a core facility and software tool provider for the analysis of genomic data generated by the different laboratories of Biogenouest (formerly OUEST-genopole®). The plate-forme is IBiSA labelled since 2009.
The platform provides a complete bioinformatics environment: computing power, storage, databanks and also a comprehensive list of software dedicated to sequence analysis. On a national level, the platform is developing an expertise in the field of pattern matching and pattern discovery tool. This activity results from a tight interaction between the GenOuest platform and the Symbiose research team (INRIA).
Among its activities GenOuest is involved in many development projects: user-oriented tools or technological transfer of new algorithms elaborated by Symbiose.
The platform is a member of the GRISBI platform, a joined project between six French bioinformatics platform aiming at the deployment of a bioinformatics grid. GenOuest is also a member of the MobyleNet project.
GenOuest is also providing a complete cursus of bioinformatics training: tools, methodologies, programming languages.
The platform is ISO9001:2000 certified since may 2008.
Outline :
People :
8 persons (2 on a permanent position)
Computer resources
2 clusters (200 cores) / 50 Tb storage
Hosted databases and specific public resources
- Germonline
- Mimas
- Aphidbase
- Autograph
- Phymycodb
- Rasta bacteria
Specific software
- Stan
- Wapam
- Pygram
- Logol
- Protomata
- Plast
- iThos
Projects
Training

Le Centre de Bioinformatique de Bordeaux (CBIB) a pour vocation de fédérer et de stimuler les projets de recherche en bioinformatique, de satisfaire les besoins bioinformatiques liés aux activités de recherche des laboratoires de biologie de la région et d’être un centre de ressources ouvert à l’ensemble de la communauté par la mise à disposition de services en accès public via le WEB.
La recherche en bioinformatique du CBiB se développe autour de deux axes :
- l’application à la biologie de travaux de recherche en informatique menés au Laboratoire Bordelais de Recherche en Informatique (LaBRI) de l’Université Bordeaux 1,
- le développement de nouvelles méthodes et de nouveaux outils pour exploiter les données de génomique et de génomique fonctionnelle.
Pour satisfaire les besoins des laboratoire de biologie, le CBIB :
- assure la mise à disposition et la maintenance de ressources publiques (bases de données, programmes…) sur son centre de calcul,
- offre un support (accueil, assistance et formation) aux utilisateurs de ces ressources,
- réalise des prestations « à façon » dans le cadre de collaborations scientifiques autour de projets de recherche portés par des laboratoires de biologie.
Enfin, le CBiB s’efforce de rendre accessible à travers son site WEB l’ensemble des ressources (bases de données, programmes) déployées : qu’il s’agisse de ressources publiques installées sur les machines du CBiB ou de ressources développées au sein même du CBiB.
