The vast amount of RNA-seq data deposited in Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and Sequence Read Archive (SRA) is still a grossly underutilized resource for biomedical research. To remove technical roadblocks for re-using these data, we have developed a web-application GREIN ...

The introduction of new high-throughput small RNA sequencing protocols that generate large-scale genomics datasets along with increasing evidence of the significant regulatory roles of small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) have highlighted the urgent need for...

Bioinformatics is a discipline that requires a combination of skills from the biological, computational, and statistical sciences. Many programs prioritize the technical aspects of bioinformatics over the biological concepts and logic of analyses, thus limiting the emphasis on critical thinking, ...

We are a small start-up building a kaggle-like platform for genomics. We are in the process of testing a prototype at competitions.2strand.com. We would like to get feedback from data scientists and enthusiasts regarding our current progress so we can ...

Pine Biotech is launching an online educational portal with practical project-based education resources in collaboration with the University of Haifa’s Tauber Bioinformatics Research Center. After piloting the T-BioInfo bioinformatics platform as a research tool, the company focused on developing online ...

The function of many noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) depend upon their secondary structures. Over the last decades, several methodologies have been...

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a frontier research area that studies genomic events down to the individual cell level, providing unprecedented insights into many biological and medical questions, such as cancer heterogeneity and tumor...

Despite their lack of protein-coding potential, lncRNAs and circRNAs have emerged as key determinants in gene regulation, acting to fine-tune transcriptional and signaling output. These non-coding...

A large variety of data of life science (such as gene expression) is accumulated in the public database, but it is difficult to use. A web tool RefEx can easily search gene expression data available in public databases to obtain ...

Clustered heatmaps are the most frequently used graphics for visualization of molecular profiling data in biology. However, they are generally rendered as static, or only modestly interactive, images. Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have now used ...
