A rare example of a simple, fun, non-bogus name for a bioinformatics tool
Recently published in the journal Genome Biology, we have:
I like this name a lot because it is:
- Memorable
- Pronounceable
- Simple, but also clever (combining elements of HiC and 5C)
- Fun (a play on 'high five')
- Not an acronym (so not a bogus acronym either)
- Unique (can't find any other tools with this name)
- Relevant (the short name has a connection to the data that the tool works with).
Maybe I need to start designing some sort of 'Anti-JABBA' award?
