Presentation Transcript

  1. BioMath meeting, December 18th 2009 • Rocky Mountain Bioinformatics Conference • MetaViewer (my project) • Other presentations of merit • Experience as a whole

  2. MetaViewer (past)

  3. MetaViewer (present) • We'll play around with the actual code for a bit, Projector Gods permitting...

  4. MetaViewer (future) • Database Blasting versus comparison sequence model • Statistic analysis • Overlaying • Color-coding (more on this later)

  5. Other Presentations: Overview • Two keynotes: • Kirk Jordan of IBM • Russ Altman • SDSU representatives: • Dr. Edwards: RTMg • Josh Hoffman: Mmg • Personally relevant: • Josiah Seaman's “Skittles”

  6. Other Presentations: Kirk Jordan • Spanning Scales - The Combination of Mathematics and High Performance Computing impacts Computational Biology • Exascale computing • Just on power costs alone, running such a computer right now would cost $2 bil annually • Average node failure every 5 minutes • Must use mutli-processor fundamentals

  7. Other Presentations: Russ Altman • Www.pharmgkb.org • How the body effects a drug versus how the drug effects the body • Sequenced a Stanford colleague, 2 weeks, $45,000 • Found drug risks, dosing information • “ball in the hardware's court now”

  8. Other Presentations: Rob Edwards • Metagenome annotation is a very time-intensive process • ~ 7 hours per annotation, used to be a week+ • Real-Time Metagenomics (RTMg) • Virtually instantaneous • Trade-off of sensitivity/specificity for speed • Mobility... leading in to the next presentation! • “ball in the hardware's court now”

  9. Other Presentations: Josh Hoffman • Mobile Metagenomics (Mmg) • Google Android cell phone based • Able to view annotations remotely • Receive data incrementally as it is ready • Save, store, and share your data • “ball is in the hardware's court now”

  10. Other Presentations: Josiah Seaman • General idea: Use color-coding to allow the brain to process genetic information more naturally • Four nucleotides ==> four colors • Text wrapping approach • We can play with the code, time permitting • Clearly relevant to my project

  11. Experience as a whole • Networking • Meeting fellow researchers • Seaman's Skittles • Meeting industry professionals • Familiarizing with the research “grind” • Showing a poor sense of self-preservation • Skiing

  12. See you folks in 2010!
