QIAGEN Silicon Valley (formerly Ingenuity Systems) is a company based in Redwood City, California, USA, that develops software to analyze complex biological systems. QIAGEN Silicon Valley's first product, IPA, was introduced in 2003, and is used to help researchers analyze omics data and model biological systems. The software has been cited in thousands of scientific molecular biology publications and is one of several tools for systems biology researchers and bioinformaticians in drug discovery and institutional research.
All QIAGEN Silicon Valley products use the Ingenuity Knowledge Base, which contains biological and chemical interactions and functional annotations created from millions of individually modeled relationships between proteins, genes, complexes, cells, tissues, drugs, and diseases.[citation needed] Each relationship originates from reported experimental facts from primary literature sources, including peer-reviewed journal articles[citation needed] and textbooks[citation needed]. The knowledge acquisition and extraction process is protected by multiple US Patents.[1]
IPA is broadly adopted[according to whom?] in the life science community and has been cited in thousands of peer-reviewed journal articles.[2] IPA can be used with or without data. IPA helps researchers analyze data derived from expression and SNP microarrays, proteomics experiments, and small-scale experiments that generate gene lists, in order to gain insight into molecular and chemical interactions, cellular phenotypes, and disease processes within a system. IPA also lets researchers search for information on genes, proteins, chemicals, drugs, and reagents. Resulting information can be used to build biological models, design experiments, or get up to speed in an area of research.[3]
Ingenuity offers search and visualization tools for science related e-commerce websites. Ingenuity has two prominent partnerships: Sigma-Aldrich leverages Ingenuity technology in their Your Favorite Gene application, and BD Biosciences leverages Ingenuity technology in their BD Cell Pathways[4] application.
