"The deal is with Biomax Informatics AG of Martinsried, Germany. It covers software called the BioRS Integration and Retrieval System, one of several programs that try to make sense of the tsunami of biological data emerging from the world's laboratories."

""The dominant thing we hear from our customers . . . is that it's too much data," said Steve Lincoln, vice president for life sciences at InforMax. "People are overwhelmed. They have a hard time finding the needle in the haystack. People know, to be somewhat glib about it, that somewhere in these databases is the cure for cancer if they could only find it."

Bioinformatics will be at the core of biology in the 21st century. In fields ranging from structural biology to genomics to biomedical imaging, ready access to data and analytical tools are fundamentally changing the way investigators in the life sciences conduct research and approach problems. Complex, computationally intensive biological problems are now being addressed and promise to significantly advance our understanding of biology and medicine. No biological discipline will be unaffected by these technological breakthroughs.
