National Cancer Institute - Genomics & Bioinformatics Group (GBG)

Bioinformatic programme packages, microarray data analysis information and molecular database

Dr. John N. Weinstein at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) developed an “information-intensive” anticancer drug discovery approach that integrates chemical structure information and anticancer activity patterns of >70,000 screened compounds with gene expression (microarray) data of the 60 human cancer cell lines.

The group offers several microarray tools including:
MedMiner - biomedical literature search and management tool
MatchMiner - translatioin tool for gene identifier types
GoMiner - organisation tool for lists of thousands or tens of thousands of genes
CIMminer - generation tool for colour-coded Clustered Image Maps (CIMs)
