IBM Research Computational Biology Center

Thu, 29 Aug 2013 08:43:59 -0500

The IBM Computational Biology Center embraces activities at Yorktown Heights, with strong affiliations with activities at Almaden and other IBM Research Centers. Computational Biology (CompBio) including bioinformatics is the study of how computer systems can manage, analyze, and simulate the complex structures and processes inherent in living systems. CompBio Research at IBM spans pattern recognition in sequences, structures and processes, the studying of systems ranging from single protein molecules through to complex molecular interactions, and the data analysis, interpretation and reverse-engineering of complex disease-lifestyle-genomic interactions for fuller biological understanding. "CompBio" has a flavor of its own independant of its parents, biology and computer science. Nonetheless, CompBio is inherently a multi- disciplinary field with important applications in biology, chemical physics, materials science, agriculture, chemistry and ultimately nanotechnology.

In a lot of my work in bioinformatics, I have been using hidden Markov models (HMMs). As a postdoc with David Haussler at UCSC we developed the so-called profile HMMs (refs). Since then I have applied HMMs to membrane proteins (refs) and gene identification (refs) and have worked on methods for such things as discriminative estimation of HMMs (refs) and alternative decoding algorithms etc. (refs).

Now my main interests are in gene regulation, where we work on promoter analysis; non-coding RNA, where miRNAs and structure prediction are the main areas; and protein structure, where the group is working on methods for structure prediction from sequence. To read more about these topics, please see the research pages.

The goal of our research is to interpret and distill this complexity through accurate analysis and modeling of molecular pathways, particularly those in which malfunctions lead to the manifestation of disease. We are inventing integrative methods for systems-level pathway modeling through integrative analysis of genome-scale datasets. We apply these approaches in studying challenging biological problems, such as how pathways function in diverse cell types and how they change dynamically.

Shendure Lab

Wed, 09 Oct 2013 14:21:58 -0500

The Shendure Lab is part of the Department of Genome Sciences at the University of Washington (Seattle, WA). The mission of the lab is to develop and apply new technologies in genomics and molecular biology. Most projects in the lab exploit new DNA sequencing technologies (Shendure et al., Nature Reviews Genetics 2004; Shendure & Ji, Nature Biotechnology 2008; Shendure & Lieberman Aiden, Nature Biotechnology 2012), and generally fall into one of six areas: 1) next-generation human genetics; 2) genome contiguity & completeness; 3) massively parallel functional analysis; 4) molecular tagging; 5) synthetic biology; 6) translational genomics. Our interests in each of these areas are outlined briefly below, and a full list of publications is available via PubMed. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?cmd=search&term=shendure
