It allows to extract knowledge (causal and correlative relationships) from scientific literature and to store it as human readable BEL (Biological Expression Language) documents.

The STUDY VIEWER is an interactive information portal for clinical studies, which was developed in the EPAD project. It allows to study the change of clinical variables over time compared to the progression of the disease. The tool allows the comparison of hypothetical longitudinal models (such as Clifford Jack et al.) with real data from clinical studies such as ADNI.
