Bio

Andrew is a Professor at the Scripps Research Institute in the Department of Integrative, Structural and Computational Biology (ISCB). His research focuses on building and applying bioinformatics infrastructure for biomedical discovery. His research has a particular emphasis on leveraging crowdsourcing for genetics and genomics. Representative projects include the Gene Wiki, BioGPS, MyGene.Info, and Mark2Cure, each of which engages the crowd to help organize biomedical knowledge. These resources are collectively used millions of times every month by members of the research community, by students, and by the general public.

Minor makeover (and Version 1.0 release!)

The BioGPS user interface has been great for users who already knew why they were there — to see reference gene expression data, and to learn all about gene function. The interface was bare bones, concise, and without a lot of flash. But it...

BioGPS's target audience

Recently, GenomeWeb did a pretty extensive write-up of BioGPS. I think it’s a pretty detailed and accurate view of how BioGPS fits into the sphere of online biological resources. The only part I take a bit of issue with is the series of...
