The European
Center for Bioinformatics and Genomics
(ECBiG) was established in 2010 as a result of
the long-term cooperation of IBCH PAS with the Poznań University of Technology.
It consists of a dozen or so specialized laboratories located at IBCH PAS and
at the PUT. Already in 2013, EBCiG was included in the Polish Road Map for
Research Infrastructure, among 53 projects considered strategic for the
development of Polish science and economy. A particular success was obtaining
financing for the project Genomic Map of Poland (POIR.04.02.00-30-A004/16 -
with a contribution of European Funds of PLN 68 million) under the ECBiG
project.
