Product Testimonials

GeneDirector Honored at BioITImaGene

"My lab has used ImaGene for many years. We are often asked to review competing products but after careful analysis we find ImaGene consistently yields higher quality results while also offering the best ease of use, and visualization tools. We recommend this software to anyone working with spotted arrays."

Dr. Norma J. Nowak - Director, Microarray and Genomics Facility - Roswell Park Cancer Institute and University at Buffalo

"We think the software is really fantastic, very intuitive and very powerful. Being a bit of a computer Luddite there are very few interactions with computers that I find in any way pleasing - but ImaGene is a rare example!"

William G.T. Willats - Associate Professor, Lektor, University of Copenhagen

ImaGene CGH Module

"My lab has used ImaGene for many years. The new aCGH module now sets ImaGene clearly above any other package that is available, yielding a profile that has less noise and a higher signal to noise ratio. Using the integrated interactive chromosome plots, we can rapidly drill-down on any chromosome region and QC the spot images. We recommend this software to anyone working with spotted arrays."

ImaGene Automation

"Batch is the best thing!"

Phillip Stafford, Ph.D. - Director of Biostatistics, The Translational Genomics Research Institute

"...Software from BioDiscovery saves us a lot of time and money. Its ability to automatically process the images in a high throughput manner is impressive. The quality of the spotfinding and data processing algorithms is high."

Fil Randazzo, Ph.D. - Principal Scientist, Chiron

"Ask drug developers today what their biggest bottleneck has become and invariably there's only one answer - sorting through and evaluating their data. Dealing with in-house-created data and combining it with just a small part of the available outside data from the point of concept through development, clinical trials, and intro production has become a daunting task. Jackson Wan has taken this task head on to create a first class bioinformatics center in La Jolla, California for R.W.Johnson Pharmaceutical Research Institute (PRI)...BioDiscovery's software is used to digitally image each chip and transfer the collected image data to a database."
