Bioinformatics
The department of Bioinformatics focuses on methods development, data analysis, and software implementation to support in-house genotyping solutions. Rapidly growing data volumes, evolving sequencing technologies, and expanding genotyping profiles provide constant statistical and algorithmic challenges for our team.
Clinical Lab & Search Unit
The clinical laboratory with the attached search unit is a department of the DKMS Life Science Lab, which core services are geared toward clinical hematologists, transplant units, and research institutes.
Commercial Department
Our department is responsible for human resources (HR) as well as financial and administrative tasks in our company. For example, these include recruiting, onboarding, month-end closings, invoicing, budgeting, reporting, and office management duties. Our team consists of experts who are highly specialized in their respective fields of work.
Corporate Quality
We are aiming at controlling and improving process quality. Consisting of the two teams Quality Management and Quality Assurance, we monitor the standardized processes from the wet lab to our general administration heading for continuous improvement and optimization. We are proud to be a member of the DGQ e.V., the “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Qualität”.
Genotyping Analysis
We are responsible for the successful completion of genotyping of every single sample in our high throughput workflow. Furthermore, we ensure sequencing quality and dataflow, drive workflow optimization, manage projects and contribute to research collaborations.
IT Services & Solutions
The core of our work lies in providing the laboratory with IT infrastructure including local servers, cloud services, and software. Advising colleagues on hardware, infrastructure and digitization complement the range of our tasks.
Lab Management
Managing our high-throughput lab workflow, in which the majority of incoming samples are processed, is the key responsibility of the department. The high level of automation and the excellently trained staff ensure our outstanding efficiency and quality. Only this allows us to analyze an average of 7,000 samples daily.
Lab Technology & Automation
The highly complex interplay of molecular biological reactions, electronic devices, pipetting robots, IT, and staff presents the DKMS Life Science Lab with varied challenges. To ensure results of the highest quality, the Lab Technology & Automation team is responsible for our laboratory infrastructure particular focus on complex liquid handling solutions and maintaining its quality for accuracy and precession.
Material Management
The core function of our team is assuring the supply of material while ensuring optimized inventory levels for our lab. These requirements include controlling and regulating the flow of material while simultaneously assessing variables like availability, quality, price, and delivery schedules.
Research & Development
The department Research & Development focuses on innovations. We perform initial experiments for updates in our high-throughput HLA genotyping workflow, experiment with novel sequencing technologies, characterize novel alleles, and conduct complex research projects in the field of blood cancer.
Sales & Business Development
The overall responsibility of our team is to identify, evaluate, explore, establish and develop new business opportunities. We are a multifaceted team of experts with different backgrounds. Thereby, we work cross-functionally and in close collaboration with our management.
