Bioinformatics web-application for a wide range of specialists without strong bioinformatic background
Automated processing and annotation of human genome NGS data
Deep automation based on special developed algorithms.
Version
1.3.0
Bioinformatics has never been easier
Suitable for beginners in bioinformatics
The software is oriented for people without special skills in the technical analysis of genomic data: doctors, geneticists, researchers, and also for beginner bioinformaticians.
Multi-platform
NGS Wizard is not tied to a certain sequencer and will process data of various platforms: Illumina, Oxford Nanopore, Ion Torrent, SeqLL, BGI. Recognition of the platform and data types will be automatics.
Acceleration of processing data
On average, time spent on technical data processing is reduced up to a factor of 2.
Web-application
NGS Wizard is a cloud-based app, and it is not required to install software on client PCs. Updates are implemented automatically.
Exclusive GWAS-MAP database on the relationship of human mutations with phenotypic traits. (in the roadmap)
The GWAS-MAP database aggregates all qualitative genome-wide association studies. The database provides access to relevant information about influence of genes of a particular person on the individual risks of diseases.
Ability to deploy the software package on the client's servers
The program is available through a web browser. Data stored on the organization’s internal servers will not leave the client’s organization.
Tracking process in details
One can track every stage of the process and adjust the pipeline if needed.
Convenient workspace
Patient and genomic data is easy to manage, with option to create cohorts. Interface is convenient and intuitive.

Reports
The scope of application of NGS Wizard
Basic functionality
allows users to find mutations and genomic polymorphisms and annotate them using connected databases for scientific research. Users are BioTech companies, academic organizations, experimental medicine organizations, universities.
Glioma module
Under development
interprets mutations found in tumor, helps doctors to clarify the diagnosis and prescribe targeted anti-cancer therapy, and also to optimize the course of treatment. The module will be extended to other cancer diseases.
Users are oncology clinics and experimental medicine organizations.
Hereditary Disease Module
In the roadmap
will allow to find mutations and determine their role in the development of hereditary diseases. Module will provide high-quality statistical estimates of the development of diseases and will predict the phenotypic traits of the person whose genome is analyzed.
Users are academic organizations, experimental medicine organizations, prenatal genetic testing clinics, as well as Insurance companies and the state healthcare system. Moreover, the module could be of interest for individual consumers for interpretation of their genomes (direct to consumer).
Metagenomic module
In the roadmap
determines the composition of bacteria and viruses in a sample of saliva, soil, food, and provides information on the degree of their pathogenicity.
Users are monitoring organizations and BioTech companies.
FAQ
Do I have to obtain deep bioinformatic skills to work with the NGS Wizard?
No additional qualifications are required to work with the NGS Wizard - the program an be used by a general practitioner, student, specialist without experience in medical genetics.
Data from which sequencers can be uploaded into the NGS Wizard?
Now one can upload data obtained on Illumina sequencers. NFS Wizard is a multi-platform product, and in the future it will process data from other sequencers.
In what format can I upload data? Is there a need to prepare them?
One can upload either fastq files with reads or VCF files with called variants, without any preparation.
