GeneMesh™

GeneMesh™ is a web-based program that uses a database of genes associated with MeSH terms to help investigators mine DNA microarray data to find associations between genes and major MeSH hiearchical descriptors (i.e., Anatomy, Biological Sciences, Disease etc.) as well as descriptor subheadings (i.e., Cardiovascular System, Genetic Processes, Immune System Diseases etc.).

ArrayQuest™

ArrayQuest™ is a web-based program for the analysis of DNA microarray data. ArrayQuest™ is designed to apply various types of analysis scripts including those written in R (i.e., Bioconductor) to microarray data stored in the MUSC DNA Microarray Database, the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) or data uploaded to the ArrayQuest center-point web server in a password-protected area.

MeSHer

MeSHer is a Java tool for biological literature mining. The application performs a statistical analyis of MeSH terms related to the specified genes to find over-represented biological themes the given sample of genes as compared with the entire population of genes present on the specified array.
