Correlation Engine Highlighting Service

The Correlation Engine Highlighting Service can analyze any web page, and underline biological terms in that page. When the user mouses over a term, more information about that term is displayed, including related literature, other related terms, and additional information about that term. You can see a sample of highlighting, here.

The Correlation Engine Highlighting Service can be used in two ways:

For Website Publishers—highlight your own pages: If you own or manage a website, you can add one line of JavaScript to each of your pages. All visitors to your page will automatically see the highlighting on each page.
