Cytoscape @version@ is the latest version of Cytoscape, which introduces a whole new architecture, developer API and set of user controls. Cytoscape 3.0 represents a major redesign from the ground up, toward the goal of providing a stable, extensible, high-performance platform for network visualization and analysis.

This manual describes the installation and use of Cytoscape. For a high level understanding of Cytoscape and its ecosystem, we highly recommend reading the Welcome Letter accessible on the Cytoscape web site.

In future releases, we will continue to tweak and improve both the software and the documentation. This manual will be updated to reflect all the latest changes.

Funding for Cytoscape is provided by a federal grant from the U.S. National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) of the Na tional Institutes of Health (NIH) under award number GM070743-01. Corporate funding is provided through a contract from Unilever PLC.
