Simplified Access and Mining of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Copy Number Data
The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) has generated a wealth of genomic information for a wide range of cancers. Much of the data is available publicly on the internet via the TCGA portal. Although the data portal provides access to download processed data as well as the ability to issue simple queries, the utility of this tool is rather limited for most research applications. BioDiscovery has solved these issues by 1) downloading the publically available (Level 3) data and associated phenotypic data onto a single, secure, cloud-based repository-Nexus DB 2) providing free and easy access to this data to Nexus Copy Number users and 3) providing user-friendly tools (Nexus Copy Number and Nexus DB) to analyze and mine this data. In this presentation we will show how to search and query this data with Nexus Copy Number and Nexus DB to find, for example, projects with a particular aberration signature or projects with specific affected genes. We will also discuss possible issues with the level 3 data and how the raw data can be used to obtain a more accurate representation of the data.From:BioDiscoveryIncViews:0 0ratingsTime:48:13More inScience Technology

Klick Health Trashes the Company FAQ in Favor of Video Q A
At the E2 Innovate conference in Santa Clara, California, the trade show floor was lined with different companies trying to sell their all-in-one enterprise collaboration solution. Klick Health could have chosen that path, but instead spent the last ten years developing its own internal collaboration system called Genome, explained Jay Goldman, SVP Innovation for Klick Health. Genome started on this belief that email sucks and it #39;s a horrible tool to use to track any tasks that need to be completed, said Goldman. With the introduction of Genome, Klick Health banned email internally and stopped using it for tracking any tasks. Today, it #39;s a single system that runs the whole company. It has become their travel system, their expense system, budgeting, finances, project management, and everything else that has to do with the business happens through Genome, said Goldman. KlickTalk -- Video Q A among employees One element of Klick Health #39;s Genome is KlickTalk, a resource pool comprised of video answers coworkers have about common office questions. They could be internal questions such as "How do I do an expense report?" or "How do I set up my vacation days?" Or they can be client related such as "Who do I get in touch with for this issue?" The purpose of KlickTalk, explained Goldman is "we don #39;t want people to get hung up on those questions because they can become big time sucks. Or people put off something to do because they don #39;t know how to do it." Ask the question to the ...From:kigniteViews:0 0ratingsTime:04:04More inPeople Blogs

NYGC Welcomes Robert Darnell as President Scientific Director
Robert B. Darnell, MD, Ph.D., a leading expert in the emerging area of RNA genomics, was named President and Scientific Director of the New York Genome Center on November 28, 2012. While he #39;s new to the role of President and Scientific Director, Darnell is no stranger to NYGC. He was part of the Center #39;s founding board and executive committee, and he #39;s the Heilbrunn Professor of Cancer Biology at The Rockefeller University, which is also home to NYGC #39;s Pilot Lab. He #39;ll retain that position and continue to be an Investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.From:NewYork GenomeCenterViews:3 0ratingsTime:01:45More inScience Technology

Leicester scientists print human genome in 130 books
28 November 2012 Scientists at the University of Leicester have printed the whole of the human genome to show just how much information it takes to make up one human body. They say it has taken 130 book volumes, which would take 95 years to read.From:marthymamoViews:0 0ratingsTime:01:51More inNews Politics
