Abstract
Retrieving information about genes is a continuous and time-consuming aspect of systems biology. While there are resources that can fulfill this need, they require navigation to different and often complex websites, execution of a search (or searches) and selection of a result before the user can view pertinent information. To streamline this process, we developed a browser extension called GIX (Gene Information eXtension; https://gene-info.org) to allow users to retrieve gene information directly from a website without navigating to another page.
