Cufflinks Description
Cufflinks is a software tool that compiles transcripts, estimates their levels of abundance, and evaluates differential expression and regulation in RNA-Seq datasets. By accepting aligned RNA-Seq reads, it organizes these alignments into a streamlined representation of transcripts. The software then assesses the relative abundances of these transcripts based on the number of supporting reads, while also factoring in potential biases from library preparation methods. Initially created through a collaboration with the Laboratory for Mathematical and Computational Biology, Cufflinks aims to simplify the installation process by offering several binary packages that alleviate the often cumbersome task of building the software from source, which necessitates the installation of various libraries. This toolset encompasses multiple utilities tailored for analyzing RNA-Seq experiments, with some functionalities available independently and others designed to fit into a more comprehensive workflow. Overall, Cufflinks serves as a vital resource for researchers in the field of genomics, enhancing their ability to interpret RNA-Seq data effectively.

Built for testing laboratories, QBench is a cloud LIMS that brings samples, workflows, lab data, inventory, reporting, quality processes, and client interactions into a single system.
From order placement through sample processing, results, and automated reporting, QBench supports every stage of lab operations. Lab teams configure their own workflows, data fields, and automation rules, so the software fits existing processes instead of forcing new ones. When requirements shift, labs can adjust fields, processes, and automations without depending heavily on custom code.
Instruments, software, and outside systems connect to QBench through file parsers and a robust API, which moves data automatically and limits repetitive entry and transcription mistakes. For reporting beyond the LIMS, labs can connect QBench to Tableau, Power BI, Domo, or Looker via REST API.
What labs get with QBench:
Sample and workflow management
Configurable workflows and custom data fields
Workflow automation
Instrument and system integrations
File parsing and API connectivity
Inventory management
A client portal
Automated reporting
Analytics and operational insights
Connections to Tableau, Power BI, Domo, and Looker
A built-in Quality Management System (QMS)
Because it runs in the cloud, lab teams get secure access to their data, workflows, quality management, and reporting in one centralized platform. Implementation and ongoing guidance come from a team that includes former bench scientists who understand laboratory workflows.
