STM publisher Elsevier, Netherlands, has announced the launch of the Genomics Data app in collaboration with Illumina, a sequencing and array-based solutions provider for genetics research.
The app allows researchers to share large data sets in Illumina’s BaseSpace cloud, where they can easily be reviewed and included in Elsevier’s open access journal, Genomics Data. The BaseSpace app serves as a gateway, opening data stored in the cloud to the publishing environment for expert peer review and wide dissemination in the form of a professional publication.
Through BaseSpace, authors and reviewers will also have additional access to analytical tools, further enhancing Genomics Data’s peer review process. This enhanced review option can give an article attached to the data set added credibility because reviewers are in the position to reproduce the analysis that the authors did.
To view the app, interested parties may register for free at https://basespace.illumina.com/apps/144144/Genomics-Data
