Maintainance
SNiPA is a joint project of the Institute of Computational Biology (ICB) at the Helmholtz Zentrum München and the Bioinformatics Core Facility at the Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar.
SNiPA was mainly developed and is being maintained by Dr. Matthias Arnold and Dr. Johannes Raffler, both members of the ICB (former IBIS) Metabolomics group. As of 2020, Nick Lehner joined the project to update and maintain SNiPA.
