    ``A team of computer scientists working with cell biologists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has created BioSig, a web-based bioinformatic system that links collections of microscope images to a wide variety of quantitative experimental data.

    ``The new program can be used by multiple researchers to answer questions and test hypotheses about protein expression, cell morphology and cellular organization in tissues and cell cultures.

    ``Mary Helen Barcellos-Hoff of Berkeley Lab's Life Sciences Division and Bahram Parvin of the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) are coprincipal investigators of the BioSig system, which for the first time makes quantitative, image-based data available flexibly and rapidly on a large scale.

    ``They describe BioSig in the July 2002 issue of Computer magazine, published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE).''
