Phinch is an open-source framework for visualizing biological data, funded by a grant from the Alfred P. Sloan foundation. This project represents an interdisciplinary collaboration between Pitch Interactive, a data visualization studio in Oakland, CA, and biological researchers at UC Riverside.
Please cite the Phinch framework as follows:
Bik, H.M., Bu, S., Grubbs, W. (manuscript in preparation) Phinch: An interactive, exploratory data visualization framework for environnmental sequence data https://github.com/PitchInteractiveInc/Phinch
However it looks like in the meantime a preprint has been published at biorxiv.org:
Phinch: An interactive, exploratory data visualization framework for –Omic datasets
Holly M Bik, Pitch Interactive. bioRxiv 009944; doi:10.1101/009944
Apologies for the confusion - the bioRxiv citation is the correct one (and we have submitted this manuscript for peer review, which is currently in revision).
