"We have developed a tight integration between the Affymetrix GeneChip platform and version 5.0 of the Rosetta Resolver system in direct response to our customers' desire to enhance the flexibility of their research environment," said Yelena Shevelenko, vice president and general manager of Rosetta Biosoftware. "Our work with Affymetrix furthers our commitment to empower users with the most effective analysis tools and formats for gene expression analysis." Researchers working with GeneChip microarray data can utilize the visualization and statistical analysis features within the Resolver system by directly importing results from the Affymetrix core software into the Resolver application. The interoperability between the two systems allows efficient and scalable data management, and enables Affymetrix users to leverage the robust analytical capabilities of the Resolver system without inconvenient data format conversions. "Through our Developer's Network, Affymetrix actively supports our customers, our partners, and the academic community in their efforts to bring new value- added capabilities to the Affymetrix GeneChip platform," said Steve Lincoln, Vice-President of Informatics at Affymetrix. "This new integrated version of the Rosetta Resolver system provides a powerful, enterprise-class solution for our customers, further enabling their use of Affymetrix GeneChip microarrays in emerging high-throughput application areas, such as predictive toxicology and translational medicine."
