G-nome Surfer: a Tabletop Interface for Collaborative Exploration of Genomic Visualization
We present G-nome Surfer, a multi-user, multi-touch table for collaborative exploration of genomic information. G-nome Surfer has been developed for a population of scientists who frequently meet in small groups for data exploration. To scaffold hypothesis forming, G-nome Surfer allows users to compare, annotate, share, and relate heterogeneous data including genome visualizations, publications, gene expression, and BLAST results. Evaluation of Gnome Surfer shows that it reduces workload and improves performance compared to state-of-the-art tools.
