System for analysing genomic data comprising a plurality of application nodes and a knowledge database

A system for analysing genomic data, comprising:

• a plurality of application nodes, each application node of the plurality of application nodes including one or more microprocessors and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising computer instructions stored and executable by the one or more microprocessors of the application node for:
• forming a calculation system that carries out genomic calculations,
• forming a human-machine interface constructed and arranged to enable a user of the system to communicate with the calculation system to instruct the calculation system to carry out the genomic calculations,
• forming an interface for accessing a knowledge database,
• the knowledge database including one or more microprocessors and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising computer instructions stored and executable by the one or more microprocessors of the knowledge database for communicating with the plurality of application nodes, said knowledge database comprising a non-transitory storage system containing said genomic data, the non-transitory storage system comprising
• a plurality of private spaces assigned to a corresponding plurality of authenticated entities such that each private space of the plurality of private spaces is accessible by a corresponding one authenticated entity of the plurality of authenticated entities, each authenticated entity of the plurality of authenticated entities being an entity that has been authenticated by the system and each authenticated entity including 1 to n user(s), said private space accessible by said corresponding one authenticated entity being constructed and arranged:
• to contain metadata and results from genomic calculations carried out for the 1 to n user(s) of said corresponding one authenticated entity, and
• to be read-only accessible to each of the 1 to n user(s) of the corresponding one authenticated entity such that the metadata and results from genomic calculations carried out for the 1 to n user(s) of said corresponding one authenticated entity are accessible to each user of the 1 to n user(s).
