The tranSMART application reflects the efforts of various informatics groups to integrate data from internal and external data sources within a single data warehouse. It provides scientific end users the tools to search for, view and analyze the data in the warehouse.
The core, internal data is a historical base of biomarker data from gene expression, RBM and SNP experiments involving GWAS, Metabolic GWAS and eQTL data types and including both raw and analyzed data.
The tranSMART application includes a search tool that lets researchers query this vast ocean of disparate data for studies of interest and related resources.
Another major tranSMART feature, called Analyze, allows authorized users to create and study cohorts of patients that have been involved in completed clinical research efforts. Analyze includes an Across Trials feature that allows users to define cohorts made up of patients from multiple studies.
