GENOPTIKUM

Abstract
GENOPTIKUM is an interactive data exploration system for the "visualization of" and " navigation in" molecular and clinical data in the field of personalized medicine. GENOPTIKUM addresses the essential but to date unsolved problem of how to identify connections between genetic variants and their corresponding diseases or the response to certain drugs and treatments, respectively. It is, therefore, necessary to connect gene data and clinical data in order to categorise specific subgroups of patients with certain disease features. The huge amount of data provided by molecular analytical methods (genetic polymorphisms, gene expression data, proteomics) can only be analysed by applying statistical methods and bioinformatics. However, even standard methods of statistics and bioinformatics fail when the data are inhomogeneous - as is the case with clinical data - and when data structures are obscured by noise and dominant patterns
