Macrogen, Terrazen Bio, DNA Link, and CG byz consortium to select the final operator of the dielectric production agency for the 'National Integrated Bio Big Data Construction Project'
Dec 09, 2024
A joint consortium of Macrogen, Teragen Bio, DNA Link, and CG byz was finally selected as the service project operator for the dielectric production institution for the 「National Integrated Bio Big Data Construction Project」 supported by the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Korea Institute of Biotechnology and ordered by the Korea Biotechnology Research Institute.
This project aims to support new drug development, disease prevention, and customized medical research by building bio big data for 770,000 Koreans by 2028 and 1 million by 2032, and is considered the largest project in the domestic bio industry with a total of 606.5 billion won.
Consortium companies plan to implement the highest level of quality control by introducing an all-process automation system for the successful execution of this project. As the organizer of the consortium, Macrogen will play a key role in producing and analyzing 145,952 human full-length genome (WGS) data and 2,800 transcriptome (mRNA) data.
Future constructed genomic and transcriptomic data will be used to deeply understand the genetic characteristics of Koreans and as important basic data for disease prediction and precise diagnosis.
