Show highly cited genes by default in "Related genes" kit #258

Closed eweitz closed 3 years ago

eweitz commented 3 years ago

This shows popular genes in the related genes kit, if no genes are yet searched. Here "popular" means highly-cited in publications, as measured in PubMed via https://github.com/pkerpedjiev/gene-citation-counts.

The top genes shown by default are intended as hints. By showing interesting genes to start, this mitigates a chicken-and-egg usability issue of gene search, where users must a priori know interesting genes in order to explore them.

This update also introduces technical support for parsing Ideogram annotations from simple TSV files. Such a common format improves developer experience for data engineers who build genomic pipelines for Ideogram input.
