Kitware's work in bioinformatics has centered on the development of an analysis tool tailored to integrative geneomic, metabolomic, and proteomic studies. Visomics is a user-friendly, web-based application that couples analysis algorithms written in R with state-of-the-art visualizations derived from VTK and Titan. Visomics gathers data from various sources and databases and provides a viewer an interactive tool for gleaning insight from otherwise disorganized data. To further enhance the functionality of Visomics, we have enabled web-based querying for incorporating external web-enabled pathways, such as KEGG, into the analysis.

Creating visual representations of the analysis of such complex data enables researchers to more easily pinpoint and focus on unique or interesting data. Through these visualizations of 'omics data, otherwise obscure patterns become clear and provide insight for some of the leading research challenges.
