%X The MicroCore toolkit is a suite of analysis programs for microarray and proteomics data that is open source and programmed exclusively in Java. MicroCore provides a flexible and extensible environment for the interpretation of functional genomics data through visualization. The first version of the application (downloadable from the MicroCore website: http://www.ucl.ac.uk/oncology/MicroCore/microcore.htm), implements two programs—PIMs (protein interaction maps) and MicroExpress—and is soon to be followed by an extended version which will also feature a fuzzy k-means clustering application and a Java-based R plug-in for microarray analysis. PIMs and MicroExpress provide a simple yet powerful way of graphically relating large quantities of expression data from multiple experiments to cellular pathways and biological processes in a statistically meaningful way.
