Background: The primary objective of life science research is to understand complex cellular mechanisms and the interplay of various genes/proteins in multiple cellular processes. For this, PubMed is still the primary source of biomedical information even though multiple other databases such as UniProt, Protein Data Bank (PDB) and Reactome exist.
Objective: With the available large volume data from high-throughput technologies and multiple databases, finding relevant information for gene-process-phenotype has now become extremely challenging and tedious. No tool is currently available to simultaneously search PubMed and multiple other databases to get holistic information. Moreover, a typical PubMed search returns large number of articles, which need to be manually screened for identifying relevant literature. Hence, we developed BioGyan, a literature mining tool to simplify.. View More»
