History

We releae a beta version of the new system, CaseSharing.

CaseSharing is a system for managing and sharing case information on rare and genetic diseases. The system can be used without user registration. Lets get an idea of how to use this system with sample data. We hope you will make use of it.

We releae a new system, PanelSearch.

PanelSearch is a publicly-available database that allows you to search and utilize Virtual Gene Panels associated with 9,998 human diseases. Virtual Gene Panels can be used for efficient clinical interpretation of genome sequences. We hope you will make use of it.

PubCaseFinder v3.1.0 is abailable.

PubCaseFinder v3.0.0 is abailable. We developed the new function which enable users to use the Mondo-based virtual gene panels. An example is here.

The following paper was published in the Human Mutation special issue on Matchmaker Exchange.

TAKEDA Japan has developed the disease search system called 'Docpedia CaseSearch' using PubCaseFinder technology and APIs.
The press release is here.

PubCaseFinder v2.1.0 is abailable. Symptom input is now more convenient ('did you mean' algorithm available). Moreover, you can import Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) term IDs to extract multiple HPO term IDs from any kind of textual input.

PubCaseFinder v2.0.0 is abailable. The UI/UX has been greatly improved. It is possible to filter the results by combining disease, mode of inheritance, and gene with logical operators. An example is here.

PubCaseFinder v1.3.0 is abailable. A ranked list of public cases on the Internet is produced based on patient phenotypes. An example is here.

PubCaseFinder v1.2.0 is abailable. A ranked list of causative genes of rare and genetic diseases is produced based on patient phenotypes. An example is here.

Our poster presentation "PubCaseFinder and PhenoTouch for differential diagnosis in rare disease." was selected as Reviewers' Choice Abstracts in ASHG2019.

PubCaseFinder v1.1.0 is abailable. Datasets and ontologies are here.

The PubCaseFinder paper is available on The American Journal of Human Genetics. Full text paper is here.

PubCaseFinder v1.0.0 has been released.
