Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing (PSB) 2017 is an international, multidisciplinary conference for the presentation and discussion of current research in the theory and application of computational methods in problems of biological significance. Presentations are rigorously peer reviewed and are published in an archival proceedings volume. PSB 2017 will be held on January 4 – 8, 2017 in Kohala Coast, Hawaii. Tutorials and workshops will be offered prior to the start of the conference. PSB 2017 will bring together top researchers from the US, the Asian Pacific nations, and around the world to exchange research results and address open issues in all aspects of computational biology. It is a forum for the presentation of work in databases, algorithms, interfaces, visualization, modeling, and other computational methods, as applied to biological problems, with emphasis on applications in data-rich areas of molecular biology. The PSB has been designed to be responsive to the need for critical mass in sub-disciplines within biocomputing. For that reason, it is the only meeting whose sessions are defined dynamically each year in response to specific proposals. PSB sessions are organized by leaders of research in biocomputing's "hot topics." In this way, the meeting provides an early forum for serious examination of emerging methods and approaches in this rapidly changing field.

Download or read book Biocomputing written by Phillip A. Laplante and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2003 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the mid-1990s advances in DNA sequencing have enhanced our understanding of humanity and all living things. Driven by these advances, the closely related sciences of Bioinformatics and Biocomputing have become the ultimate interdisciplinary study areas, forever blurring the lines between engineering, biology and computer science and bringing together researchers who ordinarily wouldn't interact. While Bioinformatics largely focuses on the analysis, prediction, imaging and sequencing of genes, the broader, interdisciplinary field of Biocomputing includes the study of biological models of computing using traditional materials, genomic modelling and visualisation, biomaterials for non-traditional computer designs and computer architectures for those materials. In addition, Biocomputing uses the principles and tools of computer science to model or algorithmically specify complex biological information systems and computational systems with life-like capabilities. Biocomputing has manifested numerous government multi-agency programs, including the Human Genome Project, the High Performance Computing & Communications (HPCC) initiative, the Human Brain Project, and other related programs such as the National Information Infrastructure and Digital Libraries initiatives, which have strong bio-related components. This book brings together the latest research in this fast-growing field.

Book Bioinformatics and Transcriptomics  Generation of a p53 Interactome

Download or read book Bioinformatics and Transcriptomics Generation of a p53 Interactome written by Theodore Ngwana and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Study from the year 2017 in the subject Medicine - Biomedical Engineering, University of Salford (School of Environmental and Life Sciences , ELLS), course: MSc Biomedical Science, language: English, abstract: Bioinformatics and computational biology provide us with the tools to collect, curate and analyse biological data and have seen increased usage in medicine and other scientific fields over the years. One of those areas of medicine where it is widely applied is in cancer research and chemotherapy. This report seeks to explore the properties and interactions of one gene, p53, which can be key to cancer research. This gene encodes the p53 protein which works by stopping cell cycle progression and hence preventing uncontrolled cell proliferation. It is also involved in activating the transcription of DNA repair proteins and inducing apoptosis. The interactions between p53 and a host of other genes involved in the regulation of transcription was studied with the aid of several databases; NCBI Gene ,MotifMap, ChampionChip ,TRED, STRING and a visualization software , Cytoscape, with which a Boolean model was produced from ten p53 interactions. p21 is a very important gene which is regulated by p53 in its transcriptional activation and tumour suppressing function .A study of some of the properties of p21 (with NCBI Gene) and a comparison of the of the number of transcription factors which regulate p21 was done using MofiMap, ChampionChip and TRED and found to be higher for ChampionChip which provided a more extensive search than MotifMap. Meanwhile TRED produced no results for gene search. In conclusion, the report demonstrated that the usually very complex network of p53 interactions can be simplified by a Boolean model to show the transcription factors regulated by p53 and the nature of interaction (activation or inhibition). Understanding these pathways of interactions might be very useful in cancer research and treatment.

Download or read book Biocomputing written by Panos M. Pardalos and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the quest to understand and model the healthy or sick human body, re searchers and medical doctors are utilizing more and more quantitative tools and techniques. This trend is pushing the envelope of a new field we call Biomedical Computing, as an exciting frontier among signal processing, pattern recognition, optimization, nonlinear dynamics, computer science and biology, chemistry and medicine. A conference on Biocomputing was held during February 25-27, 2001 at the University of Florida. The conference was sponsored by the Center for Applied Optimization, the Computational Neuroengineering Center, the Biomedical En gineering Program (through a Whitaker Foundation grant), the Brain Institute, the School of Engineering, and the University of Florida Research & Graduate Programs. The conference provided a forum for researchers to discuss and present new directions in Biocomputing. The well-attended three days event was highlighted by the presence of top researchers in the field who presented their work in Biocomputing. This volume contains a selective collection of ref ereed papers based on talks presented at this conference. You will find seminal contributions in genomics, global optimization, computational neuroscience, FMRI, brain dynamics, epileptic seizure prediction and cancer diagnostics. We would like to take the opportunity to thank the sponsors, the authors of the papers, the anonymous referees, and Kluwer Academic Publishers for making the conference successful and the publication of this volume possible.
