London, UK, March 10th 2004 - InforSense Ltd., the leading provider of Open Discovery Workflow informatics platforms, launched today at the Drug Discovery Technology Conference, InforSense 1.9: BioScience, a new application module for analyzing genomics and proteomics data within the advanced InforSense Knowledge Discovery Environment (KDE) 1.9. Offering direct integration between sequences, expression data and ontology-based knowledge management for bioinformatics research, InforSense 1.9: BioScience provides a wealth of components for a wide range of analytical applications in genomics and proteomics study. Example application areas include integrative gene expression analysis and high throughput gene and protein annotation.

This latest addition to InforSense's powerful bioinformatics infrastructure means researchers now have direct access to, and can easily integrate, expression data management and analysis, sequence analysis and annotation, ontologies and other commonly used bioinformatics functions through InforSense workflows. Combined with an extensive range of generic data mining, statistical analysis and visualization tools within a flexible discovery informatics environment, scientists can now concentrate on their science rather than on the time-consuming integration of the necessary tools. Moreover, within InforSense workflows, BioScience functions can be seamlessly integrated with cheminformatics and TextSense� text mining to create a unique platform to support informatics activities across the entire drug discovery process.
