Goldsurfer 2 is a simple application that allows you to visualize and analyze genomes.
With recent advances in the efficiency of high-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping technology, genome-wide association studies are now routinely undertaken with the sample sizes necessary to detect the modest genetic effects we expect for complex diseases.
There is now a clear demand for efficient analysis tools that allow data pre-treatment, together with evaluation, visualization and interpretation of results.
GOLDsurfer2 can be used in all steps of whole genome association studies from data import to evaluation of statistical findings.
