TGD is the main repository of genome data from Tetrahymena thermophila. Its principal investigator is Stanford Genetics Professor J. Michael Cherry. TGD is the main repository of genome data from Candida albicans. Its principal investigator is Stanford Genetics Assistant Professor Gavin Sherlock. SAM is a powerful tool for evaluating the statistical significance microarray gene expression data. The tool is provided by Stanford Professor of Statistics Robert Tibshirani. TGD is the main repository of genome data from Tetrahymena thermophila. Its principal investigator is Stanford Genetics Professor J. Michael Cherry. TAIR is the main repository of genome data from Arabidopsis thaliana. It is curated by personnel form Stanford's Department of Plant Biology. Using microarray data, BioProspector examines the upstream region of genes in the same gene expression pattern group, looking for regulatory sequence motifs. It was developed by Stanford Biochemistry Professor Douglas L. Brutlag. A powerful tool for microarray and genome data analysis, BioProspector examines the upstream region of genes in the same gene expression pattern group, looking for regulatory sequence motifs. It was developed by a team that includes a number of Stanford researchers. Using combined tiling array and comparative genomics data, CisGenome was developed by a team that includes Stanford Professor of Statistics Wing Wong. This resource is restriced to holders of a SUNet ID. StepMiner was developed by a team that includes Stanford Professor of Statistics Robert Tibshirani, Stanford Associate Professor of Radiology Sylvia K. Plevritis, and Stanford Professor of Computer Science David L. Dill.
