Australian BioCommons offers dedicated bioinformatics infrastructure to support researchers and students across Australian universities, research institutes and organisations.

Thousands of academic researchers and students have utilised our online services or attended our bioinformatics training events, and published hundreds of publications citing use of the services.

*Exceptions

Access to our Australian Nextflow Seqera Service, is fully subsidised to personal workspaces for individual researchers and organisation workspaces for up to 3 users. Due to licensing restrictions, for organisation workspaces with more than 3 users, fully subsidised access is available initially for one year, after which we offer partly subsidised access (i.e. an annual contribution fee applies after one year of more than 3 users).
