I-Lab Koriscale

In June 2013, GenScale and the Korilog Company created an Inria common structure research (I-LAB) called KoriScale. This is the outcome of a solid relationship, which has enable the transfer of the PLAST software (bank to bank genomic sequence comparison) from GenScale to Korilog. The resulting commercial product (Klast) is now 5 to 10 times faster than the reference software (Blast). The main research axe of the I-LAB focuses on comparing huge genomic and metagenomic datasets.
