Dr Ye Zheng, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center This is an online event held via Zoom: https://uni-sydney.zoom.us/j/85114748391 Genome-wide hypertranscription is common in human cancer and predicts poor prognosis. To understand how hypertranscription might drive cancer, we applied our formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE)–cleavage under targeted accessible chromatin method for mapping RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) genome-wide in FFPE […]

Professor Bin Yu, Statistics, EECS, Center for Computational Biology, Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing, UC Berkeley About the seminar Alignment and trust are crucial for the successful integration of AI in healthcare including digital twin projects, a field involving diverse stakeholders such as medical personnel, patients, administrators, public health officials, and taxpayers, all […]

Special Judith and David Coffey Seminar Prof Stephen Leslie, The University of MelbourneAbstract: Without the inclusion of diverse genetic ancestries in reference resources, inequity in research and clinical practice risks being entrenched. A handful ethnicities have been the focus of genomic research to date, and Indigenous Australians are virtually absent from global reference panels and […]

The 2024 Bioconductor Asia conference aims to bring together researchers and scientists to exchange scientific knowledge and foster collaboration within the bioinformatics community both across the Asia-Pacific region and globally. The conference will also offer a series of hands-on workshops on R and Bioconductor, aimed at advancing education and training in computational biomedical sciences. Visit […]
