SciCraft is a software designed to make software and method integration easier. It is also designed to make different computational tools easily available to the user. In theory SciCraft can be used to integrate any type of software, but we have in particular focused on the integration and availability of data analysis methods which originate from fields such as bioinformatics, statistics, chemometrics and artificial intelligence.

The emphasis is mine. I'm still not quite sure what this acutally does, but it definitely looks interesting. They provide debs too.

I caught this post on Microsoft bioinformatics research through my PubSub subscription to the keyword "bioinformatics". The post points to the Bioinformatics homepage at Microsoft Research, as well as a streaming video interview (warning: WMV file) with one of the researchers. The first part of the video stream includes an interview with developer Eric Horvitz. During the interview he says something along the lines of "At Microsoft we are held up to a higher standard", not that I'm aware of... David Heckerman, the Bioinformatics guy, claims to have invented the first spam filter ? David discusses the details of the HIV project they are working on and how "Bill" personally pushed the project. Should we be worried that Microsoft is interested in bioinformatics ?

hi
i m new to this blog.hope we share informations that benefits all.
three cheers to bioinformatics

Hi Greg

I've added a second rss newsfeed to sciencebase.com, this time focusing on medical news headlines. As with the science newsfeed the RSS is rendered using ASP on sciencebase.com so you can access it easily with a browser.

Thanks

I don't know anything about the people behind the site Paper chasin' but it looks like a cool concept. Orgainze group of people and get them to post "interesting technical papers from various disciplines".

This is for those who are interested in plotting microbial genomes in circular plots. You can easily plot classification-type data or numerical data (microarrays, proteomics or other computational data) in the program GenomeViz. Here is the manuscript. GenomeViz is free for academic users. Any comments are most welcome.
