Genevestigator

Revision as of 20:20, 13 July 2009 by imported>WikiSysop

Genevestigator is a reference expression database and meta-analysis system. It allows biologists to study the expression and regulation of genes in a broad variety of contexts by summarizing information from hundreds of microarray experiments into easily interpretable results. A user-friendly interface allows you to visualize gene expression in many different tissues, at multiple developmental stages, or in response to large sets of stimuli, diseases, drug treatments, or genetic modifications. This type of meta-analysis is core to understanding the spatio-temporal-response regulation of genes, to identify or validate biomarkers, and to find out which subnetworks are commonly affected in different diseases and conditions.

The Genevestigator developer team is composed of biologists, computer scientists, and mathematicians. We work together to develop software solutions in the interdisciplinary fields of functional genomics and systems biology.

The following laboratories from ETH Zurich have contributed to building Genevestigator:
