The analysis of 3D genomic data is expected to revolutionize our understanding of genome organization and regulatory mechanisms. Yet, the complex spatial organization of this information can be difficult to interpret with 2D viewers. Virtual Reality (VR) technologies offer an opportunity to rethink our methods to visualize and navigate 3D objects. In this paper, we introduce the Virtual Reality 3D Genome Viewer (3DGV), an open platform to experiment and develop VR solutions to explore 3D genome structures.Availability: http://3dgv.cs.mcgill.ca/
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
