Pathway Studio allows navigating biological association networks to build pathways and interpret high-throughput experimental data, such as gene expression, proteomics and metabolomics. The Huck Institutes is considering the purchase of this software to support the analysis of high throughput biological data at Penn State. If you have specific questions you would like to see Richard address in his talk, or would like to schedule a time to speak with him individually please contact him at irakli@ariadnegenomics.com. Schedule 9:10 - 10:00 - use of Pathway Studio for plant research 10:05 - 11:00 - use in mammalian research Abstract Pathway Studio is the most advanced software package for pathway analysis. It is shipped with the most comprehensive biological molecular interaction network database called ResNet. ResNet contains over 1 million regulatory and physical interactions between proteins, small molecules and biological processes. The interactions are derived from the curated data, public databases and automatically extracted from the literature by the powerful MedScan text-to-knowledge technology. The Pathway Studio allows navigating the biological association networks to build pathways and interpret high-throughput experimental data, such as gene expression microarray, proteomics and metabolomics. MedScan technology is available on the fly from within Pathway Studio to perform the advanced text-mining and to stay current with the literature. The data extracted by MedScan immediately converted into the form of graphically visualized pathways and networks that are easy to comprehend.
