Treffer: Building online genomics applications using BioPyramid.

Summary BioPyramid is a Python package, which serves as a scaffold for building an online application for the exploration of gene expression data. It is designed for bioinformaticians wishing to quickly share transformed data and interactive analyses with collaborators. Current R-based tools similarly address the need to quickly share ‘omics’-data in an exploratory format, but these are generally small-scale, single-dataset solutions. Biopyramid is written in Python pyramid framework and scalable to address longer-term or more complex projects. It contains a number of components designed to reduce the time and effort in building such an application from scratch, including gene annotation, dataset models and visualization tools. Availability and implementation Freely available at http://github.com/jarny/biopyramid. Implemented in python and javascript. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
