Paper of the week
Theta publication titled SNP prioritization in targeted sequencing data associated with humoral immune responses in chicken is paper of the week at UPWr
They never have enough
Bartłomiej Hofman, Krzysztof Kotlarz, Jakub Liu, and Magda Mielczarek participated in the Autumn Conference of the PTBI with presentations (BH) and posters (the rest).
New arrivals
Theta is expanding spatially and scientifically … Dawid Slomian joins THETA and the Doctoral School at the Institute of Animal Breeding in Cracow.
A guide to Machine Learning
Modern molecular biological problems are solved using machine learning techniques that incredibly put insights into new, more complex cellular processes. The key to the application of ML in molecular biology is the understanding of basic algorithms and their potential and limitations.
Nature published an article with the fundamentals of machine learning for biologists. Enjoy diving into ML 😎.
moving out, moving in
The renovation of the Department of Genetics building has started. For next 1,5 years theta is a guest of the Institute of Animal Breeding, Division of Sheep and Fur Animals Breeding (clik) 🙂
PTBI conference
Next week, during the PTBI conference we are going to present following studies:
- M. Mielczarek: Impact of Copy Number Variation on gene expression
- K. Kotlarz: Identification of heat stress responsive transcripts in Sprague-Dawley rats using mixed linear models
- B. Hofman: Identification and characteristics of lncRNAs in Polish Landrace boars
