Biomatters and Open Source

We believe that the best way to develop bioinformatics software is to work closely with academics and individual researchers in the biotech and biomedical sciences. What better way to do this then to engage with the energetic software development activities of the scientific community? At Biomatters we use and contribute to open source initiatives such as Biojava and the Java Evolutionary Biology Library.

Our product Geneious provides a free platform, on which diverse array of analysis tools, visualization software and data sources can be built. By providing the application framework and interoperability, Geneious frees bioinformaticians to develop smart tools, without worrying about the user interface.

If you are an academic software developer of bioinformatics tools, then you may want to download our Geneious Public Application Programming Interface (Public API). Our API is now available so that you can write plugins for Geneious Basic and Geneious Pro. We welcome your continued input into the API as we endeavour to deliver the best possible bioinformatics software framework for the entire scientific community.
