Researchers led by Olga Troyanskaya (right), an assistant
professor in the Department of Computer Science and the Lewis-
Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics, have developed a
website that brings together genetic data from various sources
to help scientists better understand ailments such as
Alzheimer's disease, diabetes and cancer. Curtis Huttenhower, a
postdoctoral researcher in Troyanskaya's lab, developed the
site. The two are shown here with the website projected on the

Wilson New website to help translate genetic data into medical
therapies Posted June 10, 2009; 05:20 p.m. From the May 4, 2009,
Princeton Weekly Bulletin Princeton researchers have created a
Rosetta Stone for the human body, a website that offers clues to
the role DNA plays in aging and disease by helping scientists
make sense of the vast jumble of information emerging from
genetics research. By mashing up genetic data from disparate
sources and interpreting it with the help o
