What you can do using BioNavigator
Bioinformatics is at the center of the revolution in genetics research. As scientists are simply flooded with data, there has been a shift in the scientific process where data management and analysis have become rate limiting in the discovery process. As a result academia and industry (pharmaceutical, biotechnology and agriculture) are turning towards bioinformatics technologies to manage this flood of information. BioNavigator allows you to participate in the bioinformatics revolution.

In designing BioNavigator the programmers and biologists wanted to address certain key parameters.
Analysis – Bioinformatics at its fundamental level is concerned with science – mathematics, computer science and statistical research into new algorithms to provide novel insights into biological problems.

Bioinformatics engineering - The next level is concerned with developing software, databases and user-interface systems to make these tools of more practical value.

Access – In this role Entigen acts as a service provider, making a range of tools and databases accessible and efficient for users; packaging, integrating and increasing the usability of the tools

Biology – at its highest level bioinformatics is concerned with biology. From the perspective of a biologist, bioinformatics is an application-driven field where solutions are sought from computing operating systems.

BioNavigator makes it easy for you to participate in this data revolution:

UPLOAD YOUR DATA

  • Data can be uploaded from your existing files
  • Uploaded data can then be used as input to analyses
  • The easy-to-use upload function is in File Manager

EXPERT OR NOT – YOU CAN USE BIONAVIGATOR

  • Made for bioscientists by bioscientists
  • Easy-to-use graphical interface
  • No need to use "command line" programming
  • Protocols are a step-by-step guide to common analyses

TEACH YOURSELF

  • Tutorials help you get started in BioNavigator
  • How-to-Use BioNavigator protocol provides an in-depth introduction (registration required)
  • Teacher’s Kit contains helpful teaching materials for students and staff

PERFORM COMPLEX ANALYSES

  • BioNavigator is designed so that even beginners can carry out complex analyses
  • "Ready-prepared" protocols and macros provide a step-by-step guide
  • Enter data and select "Choose Appropriate programs" BioNavigator does the work for you

New feature
HANDLE SETS OF DATA

  • Do you have multiple sequences to analyze?
  • Combine them into one set and perform your analysis on the entire set
  • It’s quick, convenient and efficient

New feature
RECORD YOUR ANALYSIS STEPS

  • As you perform an analysis, the steps are automatically recorded.
  • Review these in "History View" and convert them to your own macro
  • At any time in the future re-run them with the same or different data – reproducible every time

COLLABORATE WITH COLLEAGUES

  • With BioNavigator you can share analyses and results with colleagues anywhere
  • Share function in "File Manager" lets you choose which files to share
  • Collaborate on research, or keep your supervisor informed simply and quickly
