Topigs Norsvin engages in data science with Posit for genetics and genomics research.

Anchr supports Topigs Norsvin, the world leader in high-tech and data-driven pig genetics, in its operations. Using CT scan imaging, the organisation for pig breeding analyses the thickness of pigs' fat. Anchr's data science team processes all this data quickly and efficiently with R and Posit.

As a result, Topigs Norsvin was able to adopt a modern way of working, bring together all its data sources, and facilitate feedback loops. The company sees its time-to-market drastically reduced through the central data platform.

Innovation in pig breeding with data science & Posit

By using the modular Posit Team data science platform, Topigs Norsvin can optimise collaboration between its researchers and data scientists, scale capacity up or down, and achieve better performance in IT as well.
 
In this Dutch pig breeding organisation, researchers and data scientists can now work on the same platform and with their favourite tools R & Python via Posit IDE, VS Code, and Jupyter Notebooks. The organisation uses these tools, among other things, to predict the fat thickness of pigs based on data derived from a CT scan imaging analysis. Thanks to this project, a real bridge has been built between data science and IT.
