biolink
provides functions for generating urls and hyperlinks to commonly
used biological databases and resources. This is primarily useful when
writing dynamic reports that reference things
like gene symbols in text or tables, allowing you to, for example, convert
gene identifiers to hyperlinks pointing to their entry in the NCBI Gene
database.
