History
In 2004, a team of top computer scientists comprised of Professor John Cleary, Dr. Stuart Inglis, Dr. Len Trigg, Dr. Sean Irvine and Dr. Richard Littin designed search algorithms in response to a biotechnology company's unique requirement in dealing with large plant genomes. This team applied high performance computing and data mining techniques to develop a fast, sensitive and error tolerant set of search solutions. Since then, that original team, along with a larger key group of scientists, researchers and developers, continues to further develop and enhance these algorithms into a suite of technologies that are the foundation of Real Time Genomics patented and patent pending products.
Real Time Genomics Inc. was incorporated in January 2009 with the goal of developing advanced genomic analysis solutions based around this core suite of high speed, error tolerant, proprietary and patented search technologies.
