Finally, it”s a pleasure to introduce the new features of the version 1.1:

• HLA results visualization (short reads pileup)
• “Create HG19 profile” function for custom analysis
• New dashboard and other ergonomic improvements
• Improved HLA typing results for Ion Torrent and Roche 454 data
• Targeted import and analysis of mapped whole genome or whole exome data

We are working on even more improvements! Stay tuned and try it for free!

It was a great pleasure to see GenomeWeb features Omixon Target again in a new article in which they describe Vendors are Cautiously Optimistic as Illumina Readies BaseSpace App Store.

Omixon, for instance, is developing an HLA genotyping application for identifying disease associations using whole-genome or whole-exome data as well as from targeted sequencing data, Attila Bérces, the company’s CEO, says. The app, which is currently in beta testing, will also be included in Omixon Target, the company’s desktop software tool for analyzing targeted next-generation sequence data, he adds.
