Integromics was a global bioinformatics company headquartered in Granada, Spain and Madrid. The company had subsidiaries in the United States and United Kingdom, and distributors in 10 countries.[citation needed] Integromics specialised in bioinformatics software for data management and data analysis in genomics and proteomics. The company provided a line of products that serve gene expression, sequencing, and proteomics markets. Customers include genomic research centers, pharmaceutical companies, academic institutions, clinical research organizations, and biotechnology companies.[citation needed]

Integromics was acquired by PerkinElmer in 2017.[1]

History[edit]

Integromics was founded in 2002 as a spin-off of the National Center for Biotechnology (CNB / CSIC) in Spain and the University of Malaga. Principal founder Dr. Jose Maria Carazo was motivated by a market need to develop new computational methods for analyzing data, with the company's first product addressing the needs of the microarray data analysis market.
