  Abstract

Motivation: The online resources in the life sciences are characterized by a great fragmentation and one of the pressing issues of bioinformatics is making the integration of these resources a smoother and more flexible process than it is currently. Here we present i-cite, a browser extension, which implements a client-side model of integration which improves the navigation within the rapidly increasing life science literature and links terms from it to corresponding non-textual data.

{dagger} The authors wish it to be known that, in their opinion, the first two authors should be regarded as joint First Authors.

Associate Editor: Alfonso Valencia
