What is "geworkbench"

geWorkbench (genomics Workbench) is an open-source software platform for integrated genomic data analysis. It is a desktop application written in the Java programming language. geWorkbench uses a component architecture. At present, there are more than 70 plug-ins available, providing for the visualization and analysis of gene expression, sequence, and structure data.

geWorkbench is the Bioinformatics platform of MAGNet, the National Center for the Multi-scale Analysis of Genomic and Cellular Networks, one of the 8 National Centers for Biomedical Computing funded through the NIH Roadmap ( NIH Common Fund). Many systems and structure biology tools developed by MAGNet investigators are available as geWorkbench plugins.
