This presentation from the BioMIBLab Summer 2006 Workshop is a database bioinformatics tool.

Synopsis

A unifying bioinformatic resource of analyzed cancer transcriptome data.

Features

• Web based program
• Meta analysis between different experiments
• Easy to use interface across the spectrum of researchers
• Bridges the gap between clinicians

can use when tumor samples are low due to wide variety of samples on the database

• High level analysis
• All analyzed data standardized
• Co-Expression Analysis

Identifies genes that are similarly expressed across several tissue samples within various experiments

• Only includes cancer specific data
• Must go through external sites for raw data, therefore raw data is not in a standardized format.
• Need login access (free for academic not free for civilians)
• The link to the databases does not take you directly to the page for the specific gene. The user must search the database themselves.
