title: BioCircos.js: an interactive Circos JavaScript library for biological data visualization on web applications.
abstract: We here present BioCircos.js, an interactive and lightweight JavaScript library especially for biological data interactive visualization. BioCircos.js facilitates the development of web-based applications for circular visualization of various biological data, such as genomic features, genetic variations, gene expression and biomolecular interactions.
