Who are we? 

Seven Bridges democratizes access to high-value biomedical data and delivers end-to-end solutions through expansive datasets, cloud-optimized workflows, secure infrastructure, and the scientific expertise of our bioinformatics team. As a key component of the national research infrastructure for NIH institutes and industry-leading commercial partners, we provide the scale, reliability, and scientific support needed to drive discovery, enable collaboration across disciplines, and speed the path from data to diagnostics and therapies. As a Velsera company, we unify technology-enabled solutions and scientific expertise to enable a continuous flow of knowledge across the global healthcare ecosystem.

Recent examples of programs include implementations of the Seven Bridges Platform for the National Cancer Institute’s Cancer Research Data Commons (Cancer Genomics Cloud) and the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute’s BioData Catalyst—both of which serve as premier NIH analysis environments.
