For JMP Genomics 3.2, we had several requests from users to implement GCRMA background correction in our CEL import process. Similar to the request to implement RMA for JMP Genomics 3.0, this was primarily motivated by customers’ desire to process relatively large data sets without being limited by RAM memory.
JMP Genomics development group leader Russ Wolfinger and Padraic Neville (SAS Analytics R&D) recently attended the 8th Face-to-Face meeting of the MicroArray Quality Control (MAQC) Consortium at the FDA in Rockville, MD. Results of the first phase of MAQC were published in the journal Nature Biotechnology in late 2006 and
“Discovery,” the new name for the annual event formerly known as the JMP User Conference, seems like an appropriate moniker. At yesterday’s opening session, I ran across conference attendees who are using interactive JMP software from SAS in some pretty amazing ways. There’s the greenhouse gas specialist from the University
This blog post is the first of two that will describe new basic workflows in JMP Genomics 3.2. The basic workflows offer an intermediate step between the highly flexible Workflow Builder first introduced in JMP Genomics 3.0 and the simplicity of the streamlined Affymetrix Expression CHP Wizard, which first appeared
I’m glad to report that JMP Genomics 3.2 has been officially released as a Web update. The development and testing team has been working very hard on this release since last November when the JMP Genomics 3.1 update was posted. We are all breathing a little easier now with the
With the anticipated launch of JMP Genomics 3.2 this month, the JMP Genomics team is pleased to offer complimentary Web training for users, evaluators or prospective users who are interested in learning more about the software. During the training sessions, Application Scientists Doug Robinson and Jordan Hiller will demonstrate how
Again for JMP Genomics 3.2, I have to praise the efforts of our documentation specialist Tom Pedersen. He has spent many hours toiling away on chapters with lots of detail on nearly every JMP Genomics process. His job can really be a thankless one at times-chasing after developers (or a
I had an interesting conversation with a longtime JMP Genomics user the other day about open source vs. commercial software after (yet another) query from a prospect about what makes JMP Genomics different from free genomics software tools. This may be a controversial topic, and there are plenty who won’t
JMP Genomics and partners Affymetrix and Ingenuity Systems will be holding seminars in Malvern, PA (May 6), and Bridgewater, NJ (May 7). These seminars will cover many aspects of a complete expression analysis workflow, from the use of Affymetrix array platforms to generate expression data, to filtering, statistical and biological
Field application scientist Doug Robinson and JMP Account Executive Susan Glick recently attended an excellent conference on next-generation sequencing, organized by JMP Genomics customer National Center for Genome Resources. This conference, held March 6-7 in Santa Fe, NM, was sponsored by JMP Genomics, Illumina, and Roche, among others. JMP Genomics
