PubViz: What it is
Development interactive visual search interface for Medline
Summarize search results based on different biomedical concepts Protein interaction Pathway/cellular processes Anatomical location Biological process or disease
Explore Medline using external databases Targeted for high throughput biomedical data Online application Built in visualization tools
