Welcome to the baudisgroup Pages
The baudisgroup website represents projects and information by the Computational Oncogenomics Group of the University of Zurich (UZH) and the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics (SIB). For visitors more interested in Particle Astrophysics, we strongly recommend the website of another, although related, Professor Baudis.
The Computational Oncogenomics Group’s research focus lies in the exploration of structural genome variations in cancer. Our work centres around our Progenetix resource of curated molecular-cytogenetic and sequencing data. Specific projects explore computational methods, genomics of selected tumour entities and genomic variant patterns across malignancies. As members of the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health, the group is developing standards in biocuration and data sharing for genomic variants and phenotypic data, for instance in driving development of the ELIXIR Beacon project. Other research is related to genome data epistemology, e.g. geographic and diagnostic sampling biases in cancer studies.
Some Projects
Ongoing software and service projects can be visited at our Github organizations ([progenetix] and [baudisgroup]) and when looking at individual contributions to e.g. GA4GH and ELIXIR.

Progenetix & GA4GH Beacon
A cancer genomics resource built around and driving GA4GH standards
Michael Baudis
GRIC sponsored workshop with the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics
The Progenetix oncogenomics resource provides sample-specific cancer genome profiling data and biomedical annotations as well as provenance data for cancer studies. With more than 100k genomic copy number number (CNV) profiles from over 700 cancer types, Progenetix empowers comparative analyses beyond individual studies and diagnostic concepts.
