Tip of the Week: GenomePad

16 December, 2009 (13:24) | Tip of the Week | By: Trey

I discussed iPhone apps that would be useful for biology earlier this year and we’ve added one or two since. There is a new one now that I’m definitely putting on my iPhone, GenomePad. This is an iPhone app that creates an easy-to-use interface to the UCSC Genome Browser. Today’s tip is a quick introduction. [...]
