GenoLogics and Proteome Software, a developer of proteomics data visualisation software, have announced a collaboration to provide an integrated package for proteomics research.
Initially the two companies will work together to promote the synergies between GenoLogics's Proteuslims and Proteome Software's Scaffold software for advanced data visualisation and mining of protein searches.
Over the coming months, the companies intend to develop closer integration of their two products.
"The collaboration brings together the best of breed in scientific data management and visualisation for protein search and analysis and will benefit customers of both companies," notes James DeGreef , VP product management for GenoLogics.
"Researchers can take advantage of using multiple protein search engines in their clinical proteomics and biomarker research to gain more insight into the data and advance their research to the next level".
According to Mark Pitman, sales and marketing director for Proteome Software, "the synergy between GenoLogics and Proteome Software is such a natural one.
"We're both committed to bringing proteomics researchers the cutting edge tools needed for the next generation of protein identification and analysis.
"We see great benefit for both companies' customers coming out of this collaboration".
GenoLogics will be exhibiting at the US Hupo conference in Boston, 12-15 March 2006, and will be joined by Proteome Software at the booth.
GenoLogics is a provider of an open integrating platform and bioinformatics that help life science and pharmaceutical laboratories, specialising in the field of proteomics and systems biology research, to manage, integrate and analyse enormous volumes of scientific and lab data to advance health science research and drug discovery.
Proteome Software is a developer of proteomics data visualisation tools.
Its latest offering, Scaffold, is a powerful and easy to use MS/MS meta-analysis package.
Scaffold is designed to help proteomics researchers organise, visualise, and analyse their data.
Proteome Software's mission is to enable proteomics research that will foster science and medicine for this and future generations.
