Revolution Analytics, the leading provider of commercial software and support for the popular open source R statistics language, today announced the successful implementation of its signature product, Revolution R Enterprise, by biostatisticians at CardioDX, a genomic research firm.

Researchers have developed technology to precisely measure the sensitivity of nerve fibers that wire up the brain during development

Through use of this technology, they discovered that these fibers, or axons, possess an incredible sensitivity to molecular guidance cues that direct the axon's route to its desired destination in the brain. Their findings are described in the June issue of Nature Neuroscience.
