SYSTHER Project counts on SystherDB of MicroDiscovery

(PresseBox) (Berlin, )
The consortium of the binational INREMOS project SYSTHER employs data integration technology of MicroDiscovery GmbH. MicroDiscovery is a Berlin based company specialised in the development of bioinformatics solutions. Aims of the project are development and exploitation of systems biology approaches for the treatment of solid tumours. MicroDiscovery's customised database system 'SystherDB' enables the integration of huge metabolomic, proteomic and functional genomic datasets. The system provides researchers of the consortium with convenient visualisation tools and an easy access to integrated results of other project research groups. Innovative identifier-mapping and modern data representation allow all partners of the consortium to utilise all project results efficiently - even without detailed knowledge of the applied methods or identifiers of genes and proteins.

About SYSTHER
