Register for Gene Regulation
This workshop provides an overview of resources and search strategies for transcriptional regulation. Emphasis will be placed on HSLS-licensed TRANSFAC/Match and Correlation Engine software, as well as open-access tools like the UCSC Genome Browser and the Cistrome Data Browser.
The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) is surveying researchers about their experiences with and views of CC-BY licenses. They are particularly interested in the downstream uses of work published under an open license. The survey is an important opportunity to capture the benefits of open licenses and will provide insight into gaps in author understanding as well as any concerns about the licenses.
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.
All of Us office hours are for people with general questions about the All of Us Research Program* database or more pointed questions about their analysis. These sessions are held on alternating Fridays and are open to all Pitt or UPMC affiliates.
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 Thursday! These sessions are not structured as a workshop and do not include a lecture.
The fall Bioinformatics Workshop Series from the Center for Research and Computing (CRC) is designed to address practical issues often encountered in bioinformatics work. These workshops are designed to help users understand and work with the CRC clusters.
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.
