Coming Soon – New Search and New Styling

August 15, 2016


SGD is planning to release a new faceted search on Monday, August 22, 2016, along with some new site styling optimized for mobile use. The refactored search has been available for the last few months on our beta site: sgd-beta.stanford.edu.

New features of the search include:

  • an expanded selection of fields included in the autocomplete list
  • the ability to enter the SGD site and explore data and pages without an initial query – just click the Explore button and go!
  • narrowing of search results by categories such as genes, molecular functions, and phenotypes (and more!)

Navigating SGD will soon be easier than ever. Please explore the new search, try some different queries, view the new styling on your favorite pages, and send us your feedback via email, or through this short survey.
