About This Web Site

TCNG (The Cancer Network Galaxy) is a database of cancer gene networks estimated from the publicly available cancer gene expression data. The gene networks are estimated using the Japanese national flagship supercomputer "K computer." This is a result of ISLiM project which aims at developing biological software that utilizes "K computer." This is supported by many projects; See Acknowledgements below for the full list.

TCNG is currently under development and available as a beta release.
