    Workshop: Next-Generation Sequencing Data Management (April 28, 2008) in Boston

    On Monday, April 28, 2008 BioTeam will be hosting a 1-day workshop covering the data movement and management issues that many early adopters of next-gen sequencing instruments are beginning to encounter.

    BioTeam has been on the frontlines of next-generation sequencing integration, having helped several organizations with the unique next-gen IT, storage, and data management challenges. This workshop will present real-world customer experiences straight from the trenches.

    You’ll get practical information about the analysis, assessment, design, implementation, testing, and support needed to bring a research organization from technology adoption to publication in the next-gen world.

    This informative session will feature special guest speakers from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Broad Institute, Cornell University Biotechnology Resource Center, Harvard-Lipper Center for Computational Genetics, Naval Medical Research Center, and Intel, as well company representatives from Applied Biosystems, Helicos, Illumina, and Roche.

    We have a blog entry on this workshop where we'll post the most current news, speaker and agenda info. That link is here:

    Feel free to drop me a line if you'll be attending either the workshop or the larger Bio-IT World conference. I'll be speaking at Bio-IT World and possibly trying to organize a pub meet-up or local site tour for the Bioclusters mailing list folks.

    Regards,
    Chris

    Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
    by SEQadmin2



    Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

    There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

    Reply to Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by GATTACAT
    Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
