Enhanced collaboration between Qlucore and Nebion to help biologists get more out of their data analysis

LUND, SWEDEN - Jan 24, 2018 - The amount of gene expression data being produced in labs around the globe is exploding, particularly from the use of RNA-Sequencing. Decreasing costs for data generation have made these technologies accessible to the broader research community. However, the data produced is complex and challenging for labs without deep bioinformatic skills. Consequently, there is a strong need for tools that facilitate advanced expression data analysis for scientists.

Qlucore Omics Explorer provides easy-to-use statistical tools and state of the art visualizations, empowering biologists to analyze their own data and achieve high quality results and conclusions. GENEVESTIGATOR® provides powerful meta-analysis tools together with high quality curated public data, allowing biologists to comfortably explore expression data and interpret results in a data-driven manner. Qlucore Omics Explorer and Genevestigator are complementary tools which, when used together, provide scientists with a complete range of options from data storage, pre-processing, analysis, interpretation to comparison with public datasets. Specifically, the combination enables users to analyze expression data sets in full detail, characterize gene lists and interpret results in a broad biological context. Qlucore and Nebion thereby provide a straightforward solution to streamline efforts in translational medicine and drug discovery.

 “We are delighted to announce the close collaboration between Nebion and Qlucore and educate biologists in how they can benefit from using the combination of these powerful and user-friendly tools for data analysis and interpretation”, says Carl-Johan Ivarsson President of Qlucore. For Dr. Philip Zimmermann, CEO of Nebion, “this collaboration demonstrates how advanced statistics and search engine technology can help making expression data analysis easier and more meaningful. The combination of our tools will allow biologists to see both the details of their study and the broader picture by integration with curated public studies”.

In 2018 Qlucore and Nebion will collaborate closely to support the research community in the combined use of Qlucore Omics Explorer and Genevestigator for advanced gene expression analyses. Both companies announced that they will host targeted seminars and webinars for research biologists in order to demonstrate how to utilize these tools for data exploration and analysis.
