They went on to create the PubGene public search engine [ [http://www.pubgene.org Browse literature or sequence neighbours ] ] , exemplifying the approach they pioneered by presenting biomedical terms as graphical networks based on their co-occurrence inMEDLINE texts.Co-occurrence networks provide a visual overview of possible relationships between terms and facilitatemedical literature retrieval for relevant sets of articles implied by the network display. Commercial applications of the technology are available [ [http://www.pubgene.com PubGene - Find connections, speed discovery ] ] .Original development of PubGene technologies was undertaken in collaboration between the Norwegian Cancer Hospital (
