Noteworthy Features

  • GeneSpring GX lets you analyze data from a wide variety of vendors, such as Agilent, Affymetrix and Illumina expression analysis systems, or choose a simple wizard that can import all types of expression data.
  • Programmers can make use of the documented Jython scripting language to extend GeneSpring GX's functionality. The scripting enables incorporation of third-party applications such as BioConductor, SAS, MATLABŪ and R algorithms.
  • GeneSpring GX's world class classification algorithms, which include SVM, neural networks and Bayesian statistics, use training set data to find clinically predictive expression patterns and help you determine which genes are of greatest predictive value.
