Microarray Data Analysis
One of the core competencies of the Genolyze team is the data analysis of DNA microarrays.
We in Genolyze have experience and expertise in DNA microarrays, the data analysis in particular, but we are also able to assist through the entire microarray experiment - from experiment planning to result interpretation, as well as selecting the format required of results to be published. In addition, we are familiar with most of the microarray platforms, thus not being restricted to any specific microarray platform or technology.
We tailor the data analysis for each client need: The result data will be integrated and interpreted, and the gene lists will be turned into relevant pathway and metabolic data. We will mine data from different databases and integrate it with the result files.
The microarray data analysis is done in collaboration with the client: the project starts with determination of the biological questions and the experiment setup. The analysis process is iterative with feedback from the client in order to reach the best analysis result. (See figure 1)
Furthermore, Genolyze can arrange the microarray laboratory work to be done, by the collaboration partners, e.g., in Finland ( Hybridization).
Benefits:
1. Additional and complementing scientific expertise: Genolyze supports clients on all levels of the microarray experiment. Clients will have the expertise of the whole multidisciplinary team from Genolyze working in their process, and in a long-term relationship, clients can develop their own bioinformatics knowledge base and strategy.
2. Effectiveness: Microarray data consists of a vast amount of experiment and measurement data with many variables and complex relations. Because Genolyze team of scientists have a long experience and are accustomed to the tools needed, the results are delivered fast and processed appropriately, saving a lot of time in the research process.
3. Reliability: Microarray data is calculated and processed with valid statistical methods. Genolyze can assist to ensure that standard formats, e.g., MAGE (MIAME), will be appended.
4. Comprehensible results: Results are processed and interpreted to the level of the research needs, and the client is assisted with the use of appropriate information technology tools.
