TranscriptomeBrowser: a powerful and flexible toolbox to explore productively the transcriptional landscape of the Gene Expression Omnibus database.

<h4>Background</h4>As public microarray repositories are constantly growing, we are facing the challenge of designing strategies to provide productive access to the available data.<h4>Methodology</h4>We used a modified version of the Markov clustering algorithm to systematica...
