BIOBASE ExPlain(TM) Analysis Platform Selected for Top Honors.WOLFENBUTTEL, Germany & BEVERLY, Mass. -- BIOBASE announced today that their ExPlain[TM] analysis platform was chosen as Best of Show at Cambridge Healthtech Institute's 14th Annual Molecular Medicine Conference in San Francisco San Francisco (săn frănsĭs`kō), city (1990 pop. 723,959), coextensive with San Francisco co., W Calif., on the tip of a peninsula between the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, which are connected by the strait known as the Golden , CA USA. According to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. CHI, the event is the largest West Coast bioinformatics conference. Over 2,400 pharmaceutical and biotech attendees from more than 34 countries were asked to vote on the best new products among 5 categories including Genomics, Proteomics, Informatics Same as information technology and information systems. The term is more widely used in Europe. , Chemistry and PreClinical preclinical /pre·clin·i·cal/ (-klin´i-k'l) before a disease becomes clinically recognizable. pre·clin·i·cal adj. 1. . ExPlain[TM] was selected as the top choice in the Informatics category. In addition to traditional downstream pathway analysis of gene expression, ExPlain[TM] offers a novel approach to identifying potential targets. Drawing upon the combined power of other BIOBASE databases TRANSFAC([R]), TRANSPATH([R]) and HumanPSD[TM], the ExPlain[TM] platform offers the ability to exploit microarray data to identify and visualize complex regulatory processes hidden in the experimental data. According to Dr. Alexander Kel, Senior VP of Research and Development at BIOBASE, "Researchers can conduct upstream searches in the signal transduction Signal transduction The transmission of molecular signals from a cell's exterior to its interior. Molecular signals are transmitted between cells by the secretion of hormones and other chemical factors, which are then picked up by different cells. network to discover common nodes that explain the observed changes in gene expression."

"This award is an excellent, independent endorsement by conference attendees on the power of our ExPlain[TM] platform and its potential for our customers. We are very pleased to receive this honor" said Michael Tysiak, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization.
