Goal: To design and implement a drag-and-drop or palette-based editor for Cytoscape.
Description: The editor in Cytoscape would include nodes, edges, and graphical annotations. In the ideal case, this would be extensible so that apps add their own nodes or edges with specific graphical attributes. The Systems Biology Graphical Notation (SBGN) is a standard graphical notation for presenting pathways and protein interactions. Currently, Cytoscape lacks the node symbols and edge types required for SBGN. In this project, those notations will be added to the Cytoscape core, and a simple palette editor developed for user interaction.
Difficultly Level: 2 -- some experience with Cytoscape and/or implementing editor tools is preferred.
