This summer the Wellesley HCI Lab worked on re-implementing an old system, G-nome Surfer 2.0, new and improved and optimized for prokaryotic genomes. To make an application practical for researching prokaryotic genomes we had to create a number of new interaction styles for dealing with navigation of a circular chromosome. Working on the system I worked on the new chromosome wheel, the publications system, the new primer designer and the associated BLAST.

Navigation The central chromosome wheel went through several iterations before arriving at the final simple rotation model we currently use.

Publications

Primer Design

not hooked up to live data just yet.
earliest functional primerGenie prototype.


BLASTing

H37RV is the only one we needed.
early BLAST visualization showing multiple tuberculosis genomes.
