Nextnet

Nextnet is a cloud-based platform that revolutionizes collaborative knowledge discovery and decision-making in biomedical and life sciences. By integrating and contextualizing vast amounts of multi-modal biomedical data, Nextnet enables scientists to uncover hidden connections, generate hypotheses, and make informed decisions based on comprehensive information.

Key features:

- Relational Search: Conduct semantic searches using natural language or keywords to discover concepts and ideas beyond papers and authors.
- Vast Knowledge Network: Leverage a synthesized network of knowledge from disparate data sources for comprehensive insights.
- No-code User Interface: Access primary evidence quickly and discover insights faster through an intuitive interface.
- Conceptual Search: Extract concepts from scientific literature and molecular databases mapped onto purpose-built ontologies.
- Flexible Results View: Switch between graph and list views to analyze search results.
- AI-powered Ingestion Engine: Continuously extract concepts from various biomedical data sources, including scientific literature, patents, sequencing data, expression atlases, omics, pathology, approved drugs, and biological systems.
- Collaboration Tools: Save and share findings with colleagues, tag and annotate concepts, and maintain a persistent graph of research.

How it works:

1. Users access the web-based platform.
