Advances in grid computing show promise for easier provisioning of analytical services to biomedical researchers. In this poster we present our experiences in creating a grid analytical service based on the popular genetic linkage analysis tool GeneHunter. We have implemented and deployed this grid service using tools available from the caGrid project. Our results show that caGrid tools are quite effective and compare favorably with other existing methodologies.
