Visualization of transcriptional modules together with their transcriptional program is a non-trivial task. We have therefore developed a module visualization tool that allows visualizing overlapping transcriptional modules in a very intuitive way. By visualizing not only the genes and the experiments in which the genes are co-expressed, but also additional properties of the modules such as the regulators and regulatory motifs that are responsible for the observed co-expression, our tool can assist in the biological analysis and interpretation of the output of module detection tools.
