Prime Minister’s 100k Genome Project

Jitendra Narayan — Thu, 08 Aug 2013 09:40:39 -0500

Genomics Ebgland is destined to sequence 100,000 patients over the next five year in England. A landmark project by british government.

Genomics England will play a key role in building on the UK’s long track record as leader in medical science advances to push the boundaries by unlocking the power of DNA data. The UK will become the first ever country to introduce this technology in its mainstream health system – leading the global race for better tests, better drugs and above all better, more personalised care.

BOKU Lab

Wed, 08 Jan 2014 19:33:12 -0600

We are interested in the study of complex systems in living organisms. Novel views augmenting the classical gene by gene approaches are required to overcome the engineered redundancies and combinatorial effects prevalent in higher eukaryotes. We therefore combine work to establish improved quantitative experimental assays, such as microarrays or differential in-gel electrophoresis, and development of modern computational methods, such as hierarchical probabilistic models or integration of heterogeneous data sources, focussed by biological studies in our laboratory and collaborations.

Highlights of our research include:

Optimization of microarray design, probe signal interpretation
Advanced models and tools for expression profiling
State-of-the-art applications and integrated analyses
