Welcome to the Lab for Data Intensive Biology at UC Davis!

tl; dr? Data good, data analysis better.

The DIB Lab tackles questions surrounding biological data analysis, data integration, and data sharing. Our primary interest is in genomic, transcriptomic, and metagenomic sequence analysis.

In brief,

• the lab is the primary developer of the khmer, sourmash, and spacegraphcats software for faster and more efficient sequence analysis of high-throughput sequencing data.

• we run quite a bit of training in data-intensive biology.

• the lab is located at the University of California, Davis in the School of Veterinary Medicine.

The lab is run by Dr. C. Titus Brown, an Associate Professor at UC Davis; you can see many of the lab’s publications here. You can read more about the lab members under Lab members.
