Services
R&D and Bioinformatics
We provide project-based analysis and development services for academic institutions, public research institutes, and the private sector. Our outputs are delivered in a format suitable for publication and official reporting.
Analysis Services
| Service | Scope |
|---|---|
| Genome-wide association study (GWAS) | Quality control, population structure correction, mixed-model analysis, multiple-testing correction, Manhattan and QQ plots, candidate region identification. |
| Genomic prediction | GBLUP and single-step approaches, variance component estimation, accuracy calculation via cross-validation. |
| Panel design and validation | Marker selection, evidence classification, coordinate verification, panel performance testing. The internal process we developed while building our own panel is offered as an external service. |
| Reference population setup | Sampling plan, phenotype recording protocol, data model design, definition of quality criteria. |
| Machine learning and statistical modeling | Phenotype prediction using regularized regression, tree-based methods, and support vector approaches; model comparison and overfitting control. |
| Candidate gene and pathway analysis | Functional annotation, enrichment analysis, biological interpretation. |
| Pipeline development | Versioned, reproducible analysis pipelines built on Nextflow DSL2. The institution can run them on its own infrastructure. |
| Data cleaning and integration | Merging phenotype, environmental, and production data with genotype data; inconsistency detection and correction logging. |

Project Support
We take on the analysis work package in projects under TÜBİTAK, TAGEM, development agencies, EU programs, and university BAP (Scientific Research Projects). Before the project, we also support drafting the methods section, calculating the sample size, and building the budget line item.
Our Delivery Standard
- Every analysis is documented together with the software versions and parameters used. The result file is not delivered on its own — it is delivered together with the methods file.
- Raw data, intermediate output, and the final result are archived separately; intermediate outputs are also provided to the customer on request.
- The analysis is reproducible: with the same input and the same version number, the result can be regenerated identically.
Service Packages
Packages are defined according to typical needs and can be combined. Pricing is finalized at the proposal stage based on the number of animals, panel density, and scope of service; the current price list can be requested from info@vethia.com.tr.

No. Your data is not shared or sold without your written consent. Anonymous aggregate use aimed at strengthening the reference population is carried out only with separate, explicit consent; declining to give consent does not affect your service.
Contact and Getting Started
The process begins with a non-binding needs consultation. In this meeting, we discuss your herd's current status, your goals, and your budget framework; together we determine the package that suits you.
