Colloquium Ruth Nussinov: Unraveling Oncogenic Mechanisms and their Linkage to Neurodevelopmental Disorders

Online

  By Ruth Nussinov, National Cancer Institute, Center for Cancer Research, USA Over the last few years our work has aimed to reveal oncogenic mechanisms of key oncogenic proteins in the Ras signaling network, including Ras, Raf, PI3K, PTEN, and more. We aim to understand their activation mechanisms, mutations, and signaling. During the last year […]

Data management in practice with FAIRDOM-SEEK

It has been a while since the FAIRDOM community got together to exchange ideas and share our FAIRDOM-SEEK related experiences. We’re therefore very excited to announce a new series of FAIRDOM user meetings, with the first meeting scheduled for 9th of May, 2022 at 14:00 CEST. The purpose is to establish an active FAIRDOM user […]

Colloquium Andreas Reuter: Habitual Inclination Towards Scrutiny: A Brief Reflection on How HITS Came About

Online

By Andreas Reuter Institutes can be created/established for various reasons. Universities (in Germany) do it routinely as a means of structuring their organization. Beauty parlors and private schools like to polish their image by trading under the name of „Institute of XYZ“. And then there are (a few) independent institutes that were established with a […]

Julio Saez-Rodriguez: Computational models from multi-omics data for personalized medicine

By Julio Saez-Rodriguez, Heidelberg University Hospital, Institute of Computational Biomedicine Modern technologies allow us to profile in high detail biological and medical samples at fast decreasing costs. New technologies are opening new data modalities, including to measure at the single-cell level and with spatial resolution.  Computational models, in particular those built with machine learning, are […]

Antonis Rokas: Incongruence in the Tree of Life

By Antonis Rokas, Department of Biological Sciences, Vanderbilt University, USA The use of genome-scale amounts of data and sophisticated statistical phylogenetic approaches have greatly aided the reconstruction of a broad sketch of the tree of life and resolved many of its branches. However, incongruence—the inference of conflicting evolutionary histories stemming from a multitude of analytical […]
