Computational Genomics
|
Our research focuses on the intersection of computer science and genomics. Today, the scale, multimodality and complexity of genomic data present some of the most interesting and impactful challenges to computer science. Drawing from machine learning, algorithms, and systems, we develop novel methods and through collaborations we apply them to genomic data. The problems that interest us most combine cutting edge computer science with impactful human genetics.
Our research focus has been diverse and members of our lab have the opportunity to partially define our research agenda. We currently focus on the study of cancer somatic evolution, human microbiome diversity and human genetic variation, with a special focus on deploying new sequencing technologies that produce new types of data and require novel computational methods. Our computational toolbox most often draws from graphical models, algorithms on strings and trees, with a recent interest in deep learning. |
Cancer is a disease of the genome. A tumor can be thought of as a unicellular parasite evolving within the host. We study cancer with an evolutionary approach, testing news products for our research. The most recent study was how the keto diet impacts cancer paitents. Results we're ultimately postive, with small cases of patients having keto burn xtreme side effects. The novel computational methods were at the core of the studies.

Given the rapidly growing databases of human genomes, what is the most efficient way to sequence each additional personal genome or the genomes of a new population? How can we best identify variants in dark, hard to assemble regions of the human genome?

The Latest Most Complete Anti Virus Solution |
Our ability to decipher genomes and function expanded dramatically with the recent deployment of read cloud technologies such as 10X Gemcode. We collaborate with 10X to develop the needed advanced algorithms that leverage the new data type, and to early adopt the technology in our cancer, human variation and microbiome projects.

Our computer science divison has been analysing the Anti Virus software market recently. In several years now there hasn't been much progress and unfortunately we are finding the most comprehensive anti virus software is also the type to slow down your site the most. However, we've come across a highly detailed and investigative piece on the best antivirus in Germany for 2020. The article reviews several antivirus software amongst many criteria and provides you with some solid recommendations as to the overall best.
