BioConductor

http://www.bioconductor.org/

Bioconductor is an open source and open development software project
for the analysis and comprehension of genomic data.



The broad goals of the Bioconductor project are:
  • To provide widespread access to a broad range of powerful statistical and graphical methods for the analysis of genomic data.
  • To facilitate the inclusion of biological metadata in the analysis of genomic data, e.g. literature data from PubMed, annotation data from LocusLink.
  • To provide a common software platform that enables the rapid development and deployment of extensible, scalable, and interoperable software.
  • To further scientific understanding by producing high-quality documentation and reproducible research.
  • To train researchers on computational and statistical methods for the analysis of genomic data.
