# About Connected Multiomics

**Illumina Connected Multiomics** is a cloud-based software platform designed for biologists and bioinformaticians to perform tertiary analysis of multiomics data for research purposes. It enables users to organize and manage biological data into studies, apply statistical methods, reference knowledge sources for biological interpretation, correlate results across various omics data types and modalities, and deliver visualization tools to support result interpretation. This functionality streamlines the process from samples to multiomics insights, accelerating data interpretation and publication efforts.
