Everything about BioMart
BioMart is a community-driven project to provide a single point of access to distributed research data. The BioMart project contributes open source software and data services to the international scientific community. Although the BioMart software is primarily used by the biomedical research community, it is designed in such a way that any type of data can be incorporated into the BioMart framework. The BioMart project originated at the European Bioinformatics Institute as a data management solution for the Human Genome Project. Since then, BioMart has grown to become a multi-institute collaboration involving various database projects on five continents. Wikipedia →
