New Tool Makes Biomedical Data Analysis Easier
According to Phys.org, “Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have developed a tool that speeds up the analysis and publication of biomedical data from many months or years to mere minutes, transforming the way researchers communicate results of their studies.” The tool, BioJupies, uses cloud technologies to analyze and visualize large datasets, especially from genome sequencing, and produces an open source, interactive report on the data.“Until now, the primary method available to share biomedical research data has been through print publication in scientific journals,” the article continues. “BioJupies paves the way for researchers with no computational background to perform RNA sequencing analysis without the need to collaborate with bioinformaticians, enabling more medical and scientific advancements to flourish in our data rich world.” For more information, read the article.
