Explore our infrastructure
At SciLifeLab, we provide access to a range of pioneering technologies in molecular biosciences. Together, our capabilities enable the scientific endeavours of users from academia, industry and health care. Dedicated staff scientists can offer support throughout the experimental process – from study design to data handling.
-
Genomics
Genomics is the investigation of DNA and RNA to advance biology, medicine, healthcare, biotechnology, archaeology and other fields
-
Proteomics
Proteomics is the large-scale investigation of proteins expressed by any organism and includes the study of structures, interactions, and functions.
-
Metabolomics and Exposomics
Metabolomics and exposomics measure the changes in metabolite levels (metabolomics) or exposures to external stimuli (exposomics).
-
Spatial Omics
Spatial omics integrates multiple omic data types, such as transcriptomics, proteomics, and mass spectrometry, to map molecular profiles within intact tissues at high resolution.
-
Cellular and Molecular Imaging
Cellular and molecular imaging enables the visualization of biological systems, from the atomistic to the tissue levels.
-
Structural Biology
Structural Biology comprises studies of proteins and nucleic acids and other biomolecules, how they interact and appear in solution
-
Chemical Biology and Genome Engineering
Chemical and genetic perturbation to explore biology, as well as follow-up studies to transform phenotypic observation into mechanistic insight
-
Drug Discovery
Generates small-molecule, antibody and oligonucleotide leads for further progression into therapeutic applications and support with target product profiling and safety assessment of the future drug.
-
Bioinformatics
Bioinformatics combines biology, computing, and data analysis to interpret biological data across all life science domains, for research, medicine, and biotechnology advancements.
Capabilities
The foundation of SciLifeLab rests on three pillars: state of the art research infrastructure, a community of world-class researchers, and an extensive Data-Driven Life Science program (DDLS).
News highlights
Research at SciLifeLab
At SciLifeLab, no research group is an island. We live by collaboration and gather scientists in a broad range of molecular bioscience research, from health to environmental research, in order to facilitate multidisciplinary studies and networking.
A number of research constellations and initiatives makes up our scientific community, such as the more than 200 affiliated academic research groups, the SciLifeLab Fellows program, Data-driven life science, and lately also a national research program targeting Covid-19.
There’s a truly symbiotic relationship existing with our infrastructure. Our units provide access to the latest biomolecular technologies and expertise to bring research projects to the next level, whilst researchers using our services can team up with our dedicated staff scientists to propel technology development and really push the limit of what is possible in life science.
