INTERFACE METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENETIC ANALYSIS DATA

摘要

Aspects of the present invention describe a method and apparatus for viewing and interfacing with gene expression on a computer device. A computer based device interfaces with gene the expression data by representing a plate having one or more wells and their contents with a matrix of elements addressable along at least two-dimensions. Each of the elements in the matrix are processed and then distinguished based upon their passing and failing one or more metrics for gene expression data. The interface displays those values associated with the distinguished elements in the matrix using colors, shapes and symbols. Depending on the results, some of the elements in the matrix may be flagged and then filtered from the data set. Remaining gene expression values not filtered from the matrix of elements are displayed and processed further.
