Gene expression microarrays and oligonucleotide GeneChips have provided biologists with a means of measuring, in a single experiment, the expression levels of entire genomes under a variety of conditions. As with any nascent field, there is no single accepted method for analyzing the new data types, with new methods appearing monthly. Investigators using the new technology must constantly seek access to the latest tools and explore their data in multiple ways. The functional genomics data pipeline provides an integrated, extendable analysis environment permitting multiple, simultaneous analyses to be automatically performed and provides a web server and interface for presenting results.

基因表达微阵列和寡核苷酸基因芯片为生物学家提供了一种在单一实验中测量多种条件下整个基因组表达水平的方法。与任何新兴领域一样,对于分析这些新数据类型,没有单一被广泛接受的方法,每月都会出现新的方法。使用这项新技术的研究人员必须不断寻求获取最新工具,并以多种方式探索他们的数据。功能基因组学数据管道提供了一个集成的、可扩展的分析环境,允许自动同时进行多种分析,并提供一个网络服务器和界面来呈现结果。
