Bgee is a database maintained by the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics and the University of Lausanne for retrieval and comparison of gene expression patterns from RNA-Seq, scRNA-Seq, Microarray, In situ hybridization and EST studies, across multiple animal species.[1][2] Bgee provides an intuitive answer to the question where is a gene expressed? and supports research in cancer and agriculture, as well as evolutionary biology.

Bgee is based exclusively on curated normal, healthy wild-type, expression data (e.g., no gene knock-out, no treatment, no disease), to provide a comparable reference of normal gene expression.

Bgee produces calls of presence/absence of expression, and of differential over-/under-expression, integrated along with information of gene orthology, and of homology between organs. This allows comparisons of expression patterns between species.

Bgee allows searches by gene, organs / tissue / cell type and developmental stage.
