Epigenomic Signatures Underpin the Axonal Regenerative Ability of Dorsal…

Axonal injury results in regenerative success or failure, depending on whether the axon lies in the peripheral or the CNS, respectively. The present study addresses whether epigenetic signatures in dorsal root ganglia discriminate between regenerative and non-regenerative axonal injury.

Snapshots of Data Science in Action

Across the University of Miami’s three campuses, faculty and students are immersed in research aimed at providing shape and solutions to some of the world’s most pressing issues. Helping to solve some of the riddles is the use of data science—big batches of information filtered through high-performance computers that aid researchers in their efforts to decipher complex formulas and create predictive applications. Here’s a look at some of the ongoing work: Read more “Snapshots of Data Science in Action” →

New Biomedical Data Science Course

Biomedical Data Science is a new 500/600 level course, cross listed between the Departments of Biology and Computer Science. The goal of this course is to teach students how to turn data into information. Students will learn the necessary computational skills for the analysis of genomic data sets.

Essentiality and Centrality in Protein Interaction Networks Revisited

Minimum dominating sets (MDSet) of protein interaction networks allow the control of underlying protein interaction networks through their topological placement. While essential proteins are enriched in MDSets, we hypothesize that the statistical properties of biological functions of essential genes are enhanced when we focus on essential MDSet proteins (e-MDSet).
