maxd is a data warehouse and visualisation environment for
genomic expression data. It is being developed in the University of Manchester
by the Microarray
Bioinformatics Group.
This work is currently being funded by the nice people
at NERC as part of the Post-Genomics and Proteomics thematic programme.. Information about training and support services for maxd and other bioinformatics software (including an integrated bionformatics computing environment based on a customised version of Linux) can be found by visiting the homepage for the NERC Environmental Bioinformatics Centre.
The software is released under the terms of the Perl Artistic Licence which means that
it can be used for free for any purpose and that it comes complete
with source code.
If you'd like to be informed of new developments as they occur,
please join the maxd_announce
mailing list.
maxdLoad2, the second
generation of the database and the data loading and curation
application, is now available. Although still in active development,
it is stable and we recommend that you use it rather than previous
versions. It offers full support for the MIAME
standard, uses the MGED
Ontology, exports data in MAGE-ML
format and provides greatly improved data loading and browsing
facilities.
