TY - JOUR T1 - OMERO: flexible, model-driven data management for experimental biology JF - NATURE METHODS Y1 - 2012 A1 - Chris Allan A1 - Jean-Marie Burel A1 - Josh Moore A1 - Colin Blackburn A1 - Melissa Linkert A1 - Scott Loynton A1 - Donald MacDonald A1 - et al. AB - Data-intensive research depends on tools that manage multidimensional, heterogeneous datasets. We built OME Remote Objects (OMERO), a software platform that enables access to and use of a wide range of biological data. OMERO uses a server-based middleware application to provide a unified interface for images, matrices and tables. OMERO's design and flexibility have enabled its use for light-microscopy, high-content-screening, electron-microscopy and even non-image-genotype data. OMERO is open-source software, available at http://openmicroscopy.org/. PB - Nature Publishing Group, a division of Macmillan Publishers Limited. All Rights Reserved.
