zRMicroArray software implements all of the functionalities, needed for preprocessing and statistically analyzing single-color cDNA microarray data. It allows for parallel execution of the implemented algorithms which makes it appropriate for multiprocessor and multi-core computer systems. The Graphical User Interface (GUI) is easy and intuitive to use, which makes it particularly suitable for users, who do not have specialized programming or statistical background. The software is free for noncommercial use and it allows scientific laboratories, institutes, universities, students, etc. to reduce their budget on expensive software and concentrate it on research and experiments. The current version of the software is successfully used in some US Universities labs and by many students. It’s used to analyze the data for some scientific publication like this one: [url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21401974]Dietary fish oil and curcumin combine to modulate colonic cytokinetics and gene expression in dextran sodium sulphate-treated mice[/url]. I added some additional useful functionality based on feedback from the users, but it’s now the time to bring it one step forward. A new and rewritten version should be done to add additional useful tools and functionalities like support for two-color microarrays and Next-Generation data analysis. This will take substantial amount of resources and those should be evaluated.

zRMicroArray phase two goals:

1) To analyze five years of feedback from the real world users and sketch the new functionalities to be implemented. 2) To communicate back the new functionality to the researchers who used the software in the past and to analyze their new feedback. 3) To create a basic design of the new version and evaluate the development time needed.

You could find more information about the project on [url=http://changetheworldwork.com/zRMicroArray/]my blog[/url] and on [url=http://zrmicroarray.com/]zRMicroArray.com[/url] (currently under development). Phase two of the project will take about three months and I don’t have the resources to fund it myself. Your donation could help to find a cure or a better and cheaper diagnostics for a disease, and could lead to better understanding of the underlying regulatory mechanisms of the living cell. Donation to this project is of your own free will and you are not buying any product or service by donating.
