cBio is a small, dynamic, and virtual start-up engaged in life sciences consulting. Founded in 2006, our principal activities involve the development of computational tools for the genetic interrogation of pathogenic microorganisms. cBio's products assist U.S. Government agencies in their forensics and epidemiological investigations of biological pathogens. cBio also has engagements in the private sector that involve supporting bioinformatics and strategic project management efforts. Our core team consists of programmers and biologists with deep and diverse scientific knowledge. Recent new contracts have prompted us to expand our computational and software development capabilities.
