Visual analytics is subset of data visualisation concerned with maximising analytical reasoning through the use of interactivity and visualisation*
The Wheel, part of Ingenuity's iReport is a particularly compelling instance of this, with an access point to the complex data of the genetic realm taking cues from a 'powers of ten' like way of drilling into the many aspects that genetic data illuminates:
Browse your entire Ingenuity iReport starting with whatever topic is most relevant to your study: a specific gene, biological process, cellular phenotype, or pathway. Use visual cues to group genes based on molecular function, pathway membership, subcellular location, or hubs of molecular interaction to find compelling clusters of gene expression changes.
*(That may have read oddly, but it works if you accept that visualisation needn't be delimited solely to vision)
