The air at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in Hinxton, near Cambridge, fairly hums with electricity. At the end of a long corridor, on the other side of a set of double doors in what's known as J-block lies the Institute's data center, the brains of a vast bioinformatics operation. Within, a loud voice and a careful tread are useful – one to be heard above the drone of the machines, the other to avoid the streams of cold air that billow up from vents in the floor.
