It enables the user to take part in the analysis of microarray gene expression data by making usable genomics research software readily available.</span></p> </div> </div> </div> <p><strong>Project Description</strong><br /> StarBiogene is a set of visual and analytic software tools for the analysis of genomic gene expression data generated through microarray analysis. This software allows students to compare the expression of multiple genes across a range of biological samples (cell lines, tumors, etc). For example, students can use StarBiogene&#39;s visualization engine to compare different patient tumor samples and identify characteristics that are common to one set of tumors based on global patterns of gene expression.</p> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-project-technology-used"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <p></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-number-integer field-field-project-feature"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> No </div> </div> </div> <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-quote"><div class="field field-type-text field-field-project-quote"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <p></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-number-integer field-field-show-quote"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> No </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> biology genetics Star StarBiogene Mon, 11 May 2009 14:47:49 +0000 drupaladmin 123 at http://oeit.mit.edu
