Insilicos Announces Web Support for Biotech Tools

Seattle, 31 August 2005 - Seattle biotech company Insilicos today announced the creation of a web site to support software tools developed by the Institute for Systems Biology. The web site is available at www.insilicos.com/spctools. The site is free and does not require registration.
The Institute for System Biology's Trans-Proteomic Pipeline is a software tool suite to assist biologists in analyzing data from proteomics. Proteomics, the study of proteins in our bodies, is critically important in the development of new drugs and diagnostic procedures.
"This resource is part of our commitment to the research community", said Insilicos President Erik Nilsson. "The ISB's open-source proteomics tools are clearly best-of-breed, so this is part of our effort to help these tools transform proteomics research."
The web page developed by Insilicos is a "wiki", which means that anyone can visit the page and add helpful comments or suggestions.

Insilicos LLC is a biomarker discovery and diagnostic development company, concentrating on cardiovascular disease.
