Genome Wowser provides an iPad-enabled view of the human genome, according to iFreeware . The app provides a functional presentation of the popular University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) Genome Browser that is intuitive, highly portable, and allows a “Google Maps”-like navigation experience. Users can view genomic annotation tracks; zoom in, out, and across a chromosome; search for genomic elements; and download displayed data of interest.
