Have you ever tried to integrate omics data from different biological layers? InCroMAP is a powerful, easy-to-use high-level cross-platform microarray dataset analysis tool. It provides several methods to analyze or visualize single datasets, as well as methods to perform integrated cross-platform analysis. Currently, mRNA, miRNA (microRNA), DNA methylation and protein (modification) data are supported. InCroMAP can, for example, visualize all platforms at once in a pathway, provide detailed information, e.g., about promoter methylation or perform integrated mRNA and microRNA analysis. In general, InCroMAP is a tool for general or pathway-based analysis and visualization of heterogeneous, cross-platform datasets.

Article citations are critical for us to be able to continue support for InCroMAP. If you use InCroMAP and you publish papers about work that uses InCroMAP, we ask that you please cite the most recent InCroMAP paper and possibly further manuscripts about this tool:
