Geospiza GeneSifter® for Genetic Analysis

Geospiza takes raw data from any sequencing platform and transforms it into usable information based on your application. You can then access your information through an intuitive web interface anytime, anywhere or download it into a universal file format for further analysis.

From Data to Information

To help you get the information you need, we turn raw data into meaningful information such as gene lists, read depth, WIG files, SNPs and BED files. The GeneSifter analysis pipeline integrates state of the art alignment algorithms like MAQ and Mapreads, and converts files into more understandable formats.

These more understandable formats mean that instead of searching through millions of data, you can find out which are the most expressed genes in your RNA library. Then, you can intuitively link out to annotation or drill down to find out more specific data for a particular gene. For example, with ChIP-Seq a summary of graphical chromosome overviews allows you to visually identify regions of interest.

GeneSifter not only takes the raw data and transforms it into processed application data, but also summarizes the data to highlight the most interesting and important information for you.

Open Platform Supports Community Standards

To help you get the information you need, GeneSifter makes use of best of breed tools available. We provide built-in links to the NCBI database and the UCSC Genome Browser. As part of this extensible framework, you can export data at other convenient points within the application for further or custom analysis.
