Medicare is the federally funded program that provides health insurance for the elderly, persons with end-stage renal disease, and some disabled. For persons age 65 and over, 97 percent are eligible for Medicare. Almost all Medicare beneficiaries have Part A coverage that includes hospital, skilled-nursing facility, hospice and some home health care. Information about Medicare eligibility and enrollment is available for all persons included in the SEER-Medicare data (both cancer and non-cancer cases). Medicare claims (bills) are available only for persons with fee-for-service coverage.

The MATLAB platform is optimized for solving engineering and scientific problems. The matrix-based MATLAB language is the world’s most natural way to express computational mathematics. Built-in graphics make it easy to visualize and gain insights from data. A vast library of prebuilt toolboxes lets you get started right away with algorithms essential to your domain. The desktop environment invites experimentation, exploration, and discovery. These MATLAB tools and capabilities are all rigorously tested and designed to work together.

MacVector provides numerous functions for DNA and protein analysis, including sequence editing, primer design, internet database searching, protein analysis, multiple sequence alignment, phylogenetic reconstruction, coding region analysis, and agarose gel simulation.

LabArchives is a secure, cloud-based electronic lab notebook (ELN) designed for research. This ELN system enables researchers to capture, manage, store, and share information and data. LabArchives facilitates collaboration amongst researchers within a loab, institution, and with external stakeholders.

i2b2 enables researchers to discover cohorts of patients using data from EHR systems.  Through a point-and-click interface, researchers can build queries drawing from demographics, diagnoses, procedures, medications, and results recorded in Epic, the EHR system of Weill Cornell Physician Organization outpatient clinics (access to data from Eclipsys/Allscripts Sunrise Clinical Manager, the EHR system of NewYork-Presbyterian inpatient units, is planned).  i2b2 supports different types of queries of clinical data, including whether clinical concepts occurred at any point in a patient’s medical

The FlowJo workspace is a powerful statistical environment that is used for immunophenotyping, cell cycle, proliferation, kinetics studies, quantitative population comparison, or plate screening assays.

Annual license cost is determined by the number of active users each quarter. Thus we can only provide an estimate of the cost based on current usage.

FCS Express analyzes raw flow cytometry data and allows production of presentations, spreadsheets and reports.
