What is compomics-utilities?

The Computational Omics and Systems Biology Group develops various bioinformatics tools for analyzing omics data.

compomics-utilities is a library containing code shared by many of our research projects, amongst others containing panels for visualizing spectra and chromatograms and objects for representing peptides and proteins etc. We believe that this library can be of use to other research groups doing computational proteomics, and have therefore made it available as open source.
