Nexus Expression – A new take on microarray gene expression analysis (link is external) Nexus Expression is a new addition to the Nexus line of products for microarray data analysis. Nexus Expression is a solution that is computationally very powerful but simple to use by scientists for answering common research questions. The design objectives that are advantageous include:

• A platform independent solution (support for all commercial platforms and custom arrays)
• Efficient processing on a basic desktop computer (hundreds of high density arrays can be processed in one project)
• A user-friendly interface designed for end-user researchers, not informaticians (no programming knowledge needed)

Nexus Expression provides an intuitive and streamlined approach to convert raw signal values into meaningful information by integrating sample phenotypes (e.g., disease stage, survival, age, sex, etc.) with gene annotations (e.g. GO terms). Users can effortlessly navigate large datasets and generate results with a few mouse clicks. Nexus Expression is platform agnostic so data from multiple commercial and custom platforms can be loaded, processed, and viewed with ease.
