Biological datasets have become increasing large and complex. Knowledge databases and publicly available datasets are available for use in experimental planning and running results comparison...
Technological advances in high throughput, low cost DNA sequencing coupled with the availability of a high quality reference assembly allow us to interrogate the genome with greater precision...
Next-generation sequencing technology allows us to peer inside the cell in exquisite detail, revealing new insights into biology, evolution, and disease that would have been impossible to dis...
I will discuss recent statistical methods for identifying differentially expressed genes in static and time course bulk RNA-seq experiments. I will also provide an overview of the opportunit...
Advanced sequencing technologies have made population scale whole genome sequencing a possibility. However, current strategies for analysis of this data rely upon parallelization approaches t...
