CrossCheck: an open-source web tool for high-throughput screen data analysis

Abstract Modern high-throughput screening methods allow researchers to generate large datasets that potentially contain important biological information. However, oftentimes, picking relevant hits from such screens and generating testable hypotheses requires training in bioinformatics and the skills...
