However, to be admitted please email the following information to les@uchc.edu by Jan. 13: your name, institution, lab head (if you are a student), research field and responses to the following 4 questions. Which of the software systems will be of immediate value in your research: a. COPASIhttp://copasi.org/ b. [...]
"Mathematical models that predict policy-driving scenarios—such as how a new pandemic might spread or the future amount of irrigation water needed worldwide—may be too complex and delivering ''wrong" answers, a new study reveals." Researchers from the Universities of Birmingham, Princeton, Reading, Barcelona and Bergen published their findings this week in Science Advances. They reveal that [...]
The Stimulating Peripheral Activity to Relieve Conditions (SPARC) Data and Resource Center is hosting an in-the-cloud codeathon from August 6-8, 2022. Apply by July 25, 2022. Help make SPARC data, tools, and resources more Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable in this in-the-cloud codeathon. Over ten projects have made the cut, including: • Leverage AWS Athena and Glue to index, [...]
We're glad to share information from a new paper just published in Nucleic Acids Research: BioSimulators: a central registry of simulation engines and services for recommending specific tools. https://academic.oup.com/.../doi/10.1093/nar/gkac331/6582178. “BioSimulators provide streamlined abilities to find, obtain, and use simulation tools for a broad range of modeling frameworks, formats, and algorithms, to help make systems biology, [...]
Dr. L. Michelle Bennett is currently serving as the Chief Collaboration Officer of LMBennett Consulting where she focuses on helping individuals, teams and organizations create the capacity for more productive partnerships and innovation in team science. Diversity in team science has emerged as a critical element in successful research outcomes, especially in computational [...]
We're glad to share information about Peer Community Journal, a community-based, diamond open-access journal that publishes only articles recommended by @PeerCommunityIn. Pear Community Journal was created and funded by the not-for-profit and non-commercial “Peer Community In” organization, publishes PCI-recommended articles in open access, without further peer review, at no cost to the authors. The evaluation of [...]
Combination Therapies for Cancer Treatments - Ideas Lab The National Cancer Institute’s Division of Cancer Biology (NCI DCB) and IBM Research are partnering to build a Community of Accelerated Discovery composed of a multi-disciplinary group of researchers focused on the discovery implications of clinical translation of biologically informed combination therapies for cancer. The over-arching goal [...]
Distribution of knowledge resources of the four element types, obtained from 1,000 BioModels.Only seven most frequently used knowledge resources were specified. Annotations were collected either by thesbotermattribute or thegetAnnotationString()method. In annotation strings, those with eitherbqbiol:isorbqbiol:isVersionOftag were selected. SBO and GO consisted more than 50% of all annotations found. In thefollowing analyses, we used the [...]
Recently published in Current Opinions in Systems Biology: Discrete, logic-based models are increasingly used to describe biological mechanisms. Initially introduced to study gene regulation, these models evolved to cover various molecular mechanisms, such as signaling, transcription factor cooperativity, and even metabolic processes. The abstract nature and amenability of discrete models to robust mathematical analyses make [...]
