FAQ

Questions researchers ask us

Files, timelines, deliverables, publishing, confidentiality and trainings. If your question is not here, write to info@bioinfoxlab.org or message us on WhatsApp.

What do I need to send to start a project?
Your structures (for example PDB, SDF or MOL2 files), sequences (FASTA) or data, your research question and your deadline. Send them to simulations@bioinfoxlab.org or through the contact page.
How long does a project take?
A 100 ns simulation takes about 3 days, DFT for one molecule about 2 days and docking about 2 days. Typical times for every service are on the services page, and your quote gives the exact timeline.
How long can your simulations run?
From 100 ns to 2,000 ns, and we can run up to ten simulations in parallel.
What will I receive?
For simulations: trajectories and topologies, graphs as images and xmgrace files, structure snapshots, a trajectory movie and a written report. See a 100 ns sample output. Other services come with the data, the figures and a written report.
Will you help me publish my paper?
Yes. We help researchers publish their research by writing up methods and results in a form a manuscript or thesis can use. Acceptance is decided by the journal.
Who stands behind the results?
We do. We take full responsibility for every analysis we perform, and our results can be challenged anywhere. If we made an error, we correct it and rerun the work at no charge.
Is my data confidential?
Yes. Your files and results are used only for your project, never shared or published, and we will sign a non-disclosure agreement if you need one. See the Privacy Policy.
Do you work with researchers outside Pakistan?
Yes. We have completed more than 1,000 projects for researchers around the world, and we work entirely remotely.
How much does a project cost?
Every project is quoted once we know its scope. Send us a short description and we will reply with a price and a timeline.
Are your trainings online?
Yes. Trainings are live classes on Google Meet, for participants based in Pakistan. See the current program.
Do trainings come with a certificate?
Yes. Participants who complete a program receive a certificate, a project for their CV and mentorship, and top performers are offered an internship at BioInfoX.
How do I register for a training?
Email trainings@bioinfoxlab.org or message us on WhatsApp at +92 309 2529763.
Is BioInfoX a registered company?
Yes. BioInfoX (SMC-Private) Limited is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan, CUIN 0352412. Verify on the SECP portal.
Where are you based?
In Lahore, Pakistan. We are one of the pioneering bioinformatics companies in Pakistan and the first based in Lahore.
