GeneLab is an interactive, open-access resource where scientists can upload, download, store, search, share, transfer, and analyze omics data from spaceflight and corresponding analogue experiments.
GeneLab promises to facilitate and improve information sharing, foster innovation, and increase the pace of scientific discovery from extremely rare and valuable space biology experiments. {.is-info}
- NASA GeneLab Main Page {.links-list}
- Contains a wide variety of open source data from various organisms and experiment types
- Data can be visualized/analyzed by the included analysis suite
- Lots of ways to analyze data like sequence alignments, PCoA plots, heatmaps, etc...
- Users can upload their own data to be used in the analysis suite
While the database portion of this website is simple enough to use, the analysis tool has a lot of depth and utility that users will need to get used to and learn how to use, but the potential for large data set analysis is worth the time.
