New Online Genomics Database Launched

As the volume of genomic data grows, the challenge moves towards making sense of it. Iowa State University recently launched an online database that they hope will bring such data into sharper focus.

The work, which was documented in a recently published paper, allows researchers to rapidly access data on the RNA structures within a human genome. The database, which is freely available online, aims to give scientists access to the functions and structure of RNA at the touch of a button. The team hopes that the service will enhance the way treatments that target RNA are developed.
