Collection HAL PGTB
The Genome Transcriptome Facility of Bordeaux (PGTB) is an academic structure specialised in sequencing and genotyping. It was born out of the desire of the University of Bordeaux and INRAE to pool skills, technological and human resources for the benefit of the scientific community. The PGTB is part of the Fédération des Plateformes de l'Université de Bordeaux, and is a Pôle de Compétences Métier within the supporting unit: UMR 1202 Biodiversité, Gènes et Communautés (INRAE-UB). The PGTB is labelled INRAE Collective Scientific Infrastructure, Regional Strategic Platform by the National Commission of Collective Tools (CNOC) of INRAE and strategic facility by the GIS-IBISA. In addition, it is part of the INRAE Genomics Distributed Research Infrastructure and the France Génomique network, which groups together sequencing and genotyping facilities at the national level..
Its main tasks are:
- To provide a service in the fields of sequencing and genotyping,
- To carry out technological development and innovation,
- To make its equipment available and to support the scientific communities in their projects,
- To advise and provide expertise,
- To pass on its knowledge and technological skills,
- Train users and students.
