History

The original GenoViz library - called "BioViews" - was first developed by Gregg Helt at UC Berkeley as part of his PhD research. Around then, Helt and two colleagues (Martin Reese and Cyrus Harmon) formed a bioinformatics software company called Neomorphic, licensed the software from the University. With funding and development support from the Bioinformatics Department at Smith Kline Beecham, they continued to improve the library, renaming it the Neomorphic Genome Software Development Kit. During this period, several companies purchased licenses, including Exelixis and Smith Kline Beecham. Also during this period, Celera Genomics and the Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR) hired Neomorphic to build genome browser and annotation software. Ann Loraine joined the company in 1999 and helped build the Neomorphic Annotation Station for TIGR.
