“Research software for non tech-savvy biologists”

by Nick Mead about Geneious

The ever-improving processing power of the latest PCs means that science is increasingly looking towards them for help in research.

Geneious combines a series of major DNA and protein sequence-analysis tools into one powerful software solution. It's obviously aimed at serious biologists or research scientists but it's been designed with ease of use so that those scientists who aren't computer-savvy can use it. Although it's not cheap to upgrade to the full version, it's a snip compared to the cost of what this kind of analytical software would usually cost in the science world.

For those familiar with biological processing concepts, Geneious features sequence alignment, Contig assembly, primers, cloning, BLAST, phylogenetics, automatic publication updates and more:. This basically means it provides sophisticated genome and protein research tools that aim to speed up the analysis process. The latest version features several major improvements including a new search interface and 3D modeling tool.

Geneious is an excellent tool for biologists and scientists that are involved in research but don't feel comfortable with professional research software.

Pros
  • Performs complex biological tests in a simple software
  • Works across platforms
Cons
  • Requires Java Runtime Environment
  • Too complicated for non-scientists
