Software Tools to Simplify Gene Function Prediction

Summary

In the late 1990s, Google brought the power of the web search to the average internet user by introducing a simple, intuitive interface backed by powerful analysis software and a massive data warehouse. By extending existing software prototypes to build the ‘Google of Biology’ - a software system that lets people use all existing genomics and proteomics data to answer specific biological questions about gene function - this current research project will bring the genomics revolution to the average biologist.
