With Mathematica 7 having quite a couple of new features around statistics (like linear models) and bioinformatics (such as genome data), I was wondering if it could be used in the context of microarray analysis. I am toying around with a published lung cancer data set from NCBI GEO (GDS2373), and look if I can get through a somewhat complete baseline analysis using Mathematica. Along the way I am finding myself writing smaller and larger helper functions [such as common plots or a parser for NCBIs SOFT format], which might be useful for other users as well. So... I set up a little workspace on google code [http:// code.google.com/p/bioinformatica/] where I am depositing my pieces as I go. Just wanted to put it out there in case other people on this list have similar interests. Cheers, HM
