About Bioclipse

The Bioclipse project is aimed at creating a Java-based, open source, visual platform for chemo- and bioinformatics based on the Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP). Bioclipse, as any RCP application, is based on a plugin architecture that inherits basic functionality and visual interfaces from Eclipse, such as help system, software updates, preferences, cross-platform deployment etc.

To stay updated on upcoming features, releases, new plugins etc, please register for the mailing list bioclipse-announce. The development is best followed on the Bioclipse Wiki where we document the progress and ideas of the development on a daily basis.

Bioclipse is develped as a collaboration between the Proteochemometric Group , Dept. of Pharmaceutical Biosciences, Uppsala University, Sweden, and the Research Group for Molecular Informatics at Cologne University Bioinformatics Center (CUBIC).

If you would like to contribute to bioclipse; maybe you have some code that you would like to integrate or would like to become a developer, please see the Bioclipse homepage and the Bioclipse wiki

Literature

The Bioclipse publication will be available in short. See the Bioclipse homepage for the latest status on this matter.
