Visualization

Pictures paint a thousand words

Data is the bridge from hypothesis to evidence. In its own way, data is beautiful. Our visualization services help you reveal insights that enable making development decisions quickly and confidently. We provide services for custom visualization as well as for complementing existing visualization platforms.

Our services

As technology in life sciences scales, so has the data. However, with this data deluge, comes complex challenges in maximizing the value of that data. We help translate complex, scientific information into concise, interactive visuals that enable access to accurate, complex information at a glance. This allows innovative drug development, safer medicines, and the discovery of new insights and targets that shift the industry status quo. It empowers scientists to be at the center of the data experience optimizing their cognitive ability in interpreting it.

However, the complexity & heterogeneity of data requires careful selection of the approach towards visualization and achieving your objectives.

We help you with:

Building custom visualization interfaces and dashboards

  • Intuitive and Operational Dashboard
  • Seamless Data Extraction and Integration
  • Direct Embedding to Web Applications

Implementing Data Visualization tools

  • Analytics Use-Cases Identification
  • Requirement and Gap Analysis
  • Extensive Visualization Derived through Data Sources

Optimizing existing dashboards

  • Pipeline & Data Model Optimization
  • Dashboard Performance Enhancement with Semantic Layers
  • Actionable Visuals with Performance Architecture

Our visualization experts work on platforms, tools, and libraries, in the scientific domain, such as:

  • R data visualization libraries (ggplot2, Lattice, and Plotly)
  • Python data visualization libraries (PANDAS, Vispy, Matplotlib, Seaborn, PyGal)
  • Dashboarding Software (PowerBI, Tableau, Spotfire, QlikView, R-Shiny) and more

Case study

Gene visualization

Genomic data analyses require integrated visualization of known genomic information and new experimental data. Our client had acquired access to a large cohort of GWAS data and needed it to be internalized and made available for their geneticists to benchmark their own studies. The need was then for us to develop an internal tool that allowed for the typical GWAS data analysis workflow (including Manhattan plots) and a multi-species genome browser to help annotate the data.

The architecture considered frontend tech i.e., AngularJS, D3, React JS coupled with HTML5 & CSS along with PostgreSQL, Azure, and Apache

The application built was optimized to cater to the typical challenges:

  • Increasing sample size and marker density in GWAS studies makes the associated computing expensive
  • Configuring the genome browser to a cloud architecture

The application was scalable for a 1000 users at a time, and we developed access management controls to tier functionality based on the user’s role. This then allowed the geneticists to upload their GWAS data, analyze it, and annotate it based on public and licensed reference data sets at scale.
