Could be an interesting fit on the software front, too - Message 16245557 Eos has developed its own proprietary suite of highly parallel bioinformatics tools, specially-designed to analyze data of the magnitude of the human genome. A key element to the success of these bioinformatics tools is that we have created them for our own use, not as a product offering. Furthermore, we use them during the actual stream of data flow, not as an isolated step after-the-fact (as is the case with many commercially available software packages). Eos gene expression analysis tools include: * A proprietary tool for DNA microarray normalization. Eos has developed a novel calibration method for comparing gene expression data from numerous and diverse experimental data sets. * Eosurveyor™, a unique gene expression analysis tool for statistical mining of DNA microarray data. Gene expression data may now be evaluated with statistical confidence that a gene is changing during a disease process, minimizing false negative as well as false positive results. Eosurveyor™ was created to take full advantage of increasing volumes of independent samples within an expression database, going far beyond pair-wise comparison. * An automated quality control evaluation of every DNA array analysis. By controlling for sporadic sample or array failures, "mining" of expression data can be performed with an even greater level of confidence.
