Benchmarking

Benchmarking of tools for sequence analysis

As part of the ENGAGE project, benchmarking of tools for sequence analysis is performed. The benchmarking reports below have been produced and are available for download.

ENGAGE - Establishing Next Generation Sequencing Ability for Genomic Analysis in Europe.

 

ENGAGE envisions to establish collaboration between the public health, food and veterinary sectors across the European Union (EU). The aim is to build and enhance the use of real-time whole genome sequencing (WGS) and analysis in food safety and public health protection. ENGAGE will exploit established collaborations to boost scientific cooperation among the leading food, veterinary and public health institutes across Europe.

 

The ENGAGE project has received funding from European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), grant agreement GP/EFSA/AFSCO/2015/01 (New approaches in identifying and characterizing microbiological and chemical hazards).
