This season’s lineup offers a diverse range of contemporary bioinformatics topics, such as new expanded offerings on using Partek Flow and our regular introduction to the All of Us Research Workbench. This semester also sees the return of our popular R and Python bootcamps.
Are you facing challenges with R or Python? Do you have urgent questions or simply need guidance on your data analysis? HSLS MolBio is offers office hours for exactly these purposes every other Thursday! These sessions are not structured as a workshop and do not include a lecture.
CMU Libraries is hosting a collaborative hackathon in partnership with DNAnexus on the topic of machine learning and AI approaches to multimodal problems in computational biology. The hackathon will be held in person at Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh on March 3-5 with the option of virtual participation for international folks.
Are you interested in using Cytoscape, a powerful network visualization and analysis tool, to explore your gene or protein expression data? Perhaps you have identified some genes of interest and would like to investigate their functional enrichment using visualization tools.
HSLS and ULS have signed an open access publishing agreement with Elsevier, a major international publisher of books and journals across most disciplines, and the biggest publisher for Pitt authors, with nearly 1,500 articles per year.
This agreement allows the Pitt community to read and publish open in over 800 hybrid journals without incurring APC charges, as well as a selection of Cell Press titles at a 10% discount.
The Health Sciences Library System and University Library System have signed a transformative (read and publish) agreement with Wiley, a major international publisher of books and journals across most disciplines, and the second biggest publisher for Pitt authors (after Elsevier), with over 800 articles per year.
Research scientists are challenged by the need to put their private omics data into biological context with public data. This analysis requires time-consuming literature-based searches and manual comparison with open-source datasets of variable quality. Illumina’s Correlation Engine is an interactive omics knowledgebase that puts private data in biological context with highly curated public data in a comprehensive and easy to use platform.
