In recent years, next generation sequencing (NGS) has gradually replaced microarray as the major platform in measuring gene expressions. Compared to microarray, NGS has many advantages, such as less noise and higher throughput. However, the discreteness of NGS data also ...

Microarray and RNA-seq experiments have become an important part of modern genomics and systems biology. Obtaining meaningful biological data from these experiments is an arduous task that demands close attention to many details. Negligence at any step can lead to ...

Genomics and genetics have invaded all aspects of biology and medicine, opening uncharted territory for scientific exploration. The definition of “gene” itself has become ambiguous, and the central dogma is continuously being revised and expanded. Computational biology and computational medicine ...

Identifying master regulators of biological processes and mapping their downstream gene networks are key challenges in systems biology. Researchers at the KU Leuven Center for Human Genetics developed a computational method, called iRegulon, to reverse-engineer the transcriptional regulatory network underlying ...
