  • Data-Intensive Computing in Biology, 6-8 Feb 2012, Daresbury UK

    Data-Intensive Computing in Biology

    February 6th - 8th 2012 at the STFC Daresbury Laboratory, Warrington, WA4 4AD, UK

    https://eventbooking.stfc.ac.uk/news...ing-in-biology

    A major theme of modern biology is the quantity and wealth of data available: the data deluge. Biologists need to be able to handle very large datasets, and to extract useful information and derive knowledge. Example applications include sequencing, metagenomics, proteomics, imaging and neuroscience. This workshop will look at the computational challenges in data-driven biology. It will bring together computer hardware and infrastructure experts with scientists involved in challenging data-driven disciplines. We will cover scientific challenges, instrumentation, computational platforms, data standards, and scaleability of current applications.

    Please apply via the web site. Places are limited. Registration is free for this event, but participants are responsible for their own accommodation and travel.

    Organised by Martyn Winn and Jonathan Follows (STFC Daresbury Laboratory), Chris Rawlings (Rothamsted Research), Mario Caccamo (The Genome Analysis Centre), Paul Flicek (European Bioinformatics Institute).

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
