Serratus

Serratus is a collaborative Open Science project for ultra-rapid discovery of all viruses.

Serratus Mountain in Squamish, BC. Canada

Background

Forewarned is Forearmed.

Our primary goal is to generate the viral data to accelerate the global research efforts in fighting emerging pathogens. We are re-analyzing all RNA-seq, meta-genomics, meta-transcriptomics and environmental sequencing data in the NCBI Short Read Archive to discover new viruses. That is >6 million biological samples or >10 petabases of sequencing data.

Contribute to Serratus

The Serratus team is actively looking to collaborate with all scientists and developers.
