Metalife is dedicated to enabling the life science companies to improve their productivity through integrative bioinformatics solutions that cover the complete research and development value chain. Our team is a fine-tuned mixture of computer science, biology and economics specialists that combine their domain expertise to create high performance software products for our customers.
The reason for founding Metalife is simple. Nowadays, there are huge amounts of free sources for life sciences’ information worldwide. Universities, patent offices and public funded institutions (e.g. NCBI and EBI) provide experimental and analytical data in abundance. Our first project was to utilize all this information and fit it into a comprehensive life sciences’ model. The reset of these efforts now is the biggest semantically integrated database: the metalife knowledgebase.
The success of our clients and partners has been always at the center of our cooperative projects. During the years we have worked with many of the leading companies in the life science industry and developed software tools that increased significantly their production process. Our portfolio reaches from database integration models and search techniques to sophisticated algorithmic analysis of data, design of custom workflow pipelines, text mining, document management and many more. For detailed information about our software solutions, please visit our products page.
The academic community is also of special interest for us. Currently, Metalife is cooperating with universities, medical institutes and clinics and a remarkable success has been registered in the field of cancer research.
