Many biomedical researchers are striving to make sense of the flood of data that has followed recent advances in genomic sequencing technologies. In specific,researchers are often limited by the challenge of getting multiple bioinformatics tools to "talk" to one another. To help address this need, researchers at University of California, and San Diego School of Medicine,in collaboration with labs at the wide Institute of MIT and Harvard, Stanford University, and Weizmann Institute and Pennsylvania State University,developed GenomeSpace, a cloud-based, or biologist-friendly platform that connects more than 20 bioinformatics software packages and resources for genomic data analysis.
