Ordino

Ordino, developed by datavisyn, is a bioinformatics data visualization platform optimized for drug discovery applications. It is designed for scientists with little or no bioinformatics or programming background, enabling anyone on a research team to interactively integrate, visualize, explore, analyze, annotate, and share virtually any combination of discovery data. Built in direct collaboration with pharma researchers, Ordino replaces fragmented patchworks of apps and spreadsheets with a single, intuitive platform that supports data-driven decision-making with confidence.

Rather than relying on opaque AI or black-box algorithms, Ordino provides transparent, award-winning visual analytics tools and intuitive workflows designed to foster collaborative science. It puts researchers in control of their data, helping them discover more, faster, while maintaining full reproducibility and traceability of their analyses.

Core Workflow Capabilities

• Integrate: Combine any combination of biological experimental and metadata into a connected data landscape. Ordino automatically identifies common biomedical ID types, such as Ensembl gene IDs, to seamlessly integrate data from disparate sources.
• Drill Down: Access detailed supplemental information about datasets of interest, including how they are related, methods and materials used, and original study metadata. Quickly rank, filter, and compare disparate data within a single platform.
• Visualize: Use powerful built-in data visualization tools to analyze patterns and plot interesting combinations of data from different datasets, including the ability to create publication-ready visualizations on the fly.
• Collaborate: Record all steps in an analysis workflow in saved sessions that can be easily rerun, restarted, used as documentation for training, and shared with trusted collaborators.

Key Features and Capabilities

• Break Down Discovery Data Silos: Provide a common internal repository for drug discovery data accumulated across different departments. Users can upload, organize, and centralize disease- and drug-related datasets in pre-defined workbenches accessible to designated users.
• Perform Analyses without Boundaries: Integrate datasets generated with molecular, biochemical, biophysical, microscopical, and microbiological experimental methods, using standard biological identifiers such as Ensembl gene IDs and Uniprot IDs as keys. Visualize connected experimental datasets in customized data landscapes to quickly identify patterns and relationships.
• Get Detailed Supporting Information with a Click: Access detailed supplementary information about biological entities from public and internal web-based sources without leaving the Ordino platform, keeping researchers focused on their tasks.
• Identify and Interpret Patterns: Create, visualize, and explore rankings of biological entities based on user-defined attributes. Ordino includes full access to LineUp.js, an award-winning interactive technique that enables users to interactively combine attributes and flexibly refine parameters during data exploration.
• Create Powerful Visualizations: Choose from a wide array of data visualization techniques for exploratory data analysis, ranging from commonly used statistical graphics such as bar charts and scatterplots to sophisticated domain-specific visualizations, including a complex heatmap inspired by the OncoPrint plot for visualizing multiple genomic alteration events.
• Document and Share Workflows and Processes: Save all steps required to perform common or complex data analysis functions using Ordino analysis sessions. These recorded sessions ensure reproducibility, enable sharing and standardization of protocols, and support training of team members.

Biomedical Intelligence and Knowledgebase

• Ordino includes access to the cloud-based visyn Knowledgebase, which integrates public data from more than 70 public sources and data repositories.
• The visyn Knowledgebase includes universal data import tools that make it easy for any team member to import and integrate in-house experimental and internal research data, molding it to support specific research focus areas.

Ordino is available with flexible licensing and deployment options. Teams interested in getting started can contact datavisyn directly at [email protected] or explore the platform through a trial.
