Anyone that has been working with gel electrophoresis a lot (either DNA / protein) probably knows that the analyzing and documenting of an enormous amount of gel / blot pictures is a pain.
Considering there are many fancy online image editors, why not try to develop an online gel analyzer? Not just for analyzing the gels, but also for creating an user friendly repository / API. Since gels are often the main result of biochemical / mol. gen. research, why not make an interactive place for publishing gels? It often annoyes me that you can only find cropped and enhanced gel pictures in articles...
I know there are a lot of talented programmers drifting around on these discussion groups, scouting for cool projects.
Would anybody be interested in developing such a tool?
Desktop based examples are:
- Image J
- Band Leader
- TotalLab
- GelQuant.NET
- GelAnalyzer
