Applying Bioinformatics to Biomedical Research: Best Practices and Trends, New Webinar Hosted by Xtalks

TORONTO, September 5, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Join this live webinar on Wednesday, September 19, 2018, at 11 a.m. EDT (4 p.m. BST/UK), for an informative session focusing on the impact of novel bioinformatics technologies in the life sciences. With massive datasets currently being produced by very high-throughput technologies, many wonder how bioinformaticians, data scientists, and statisticians can help research organizations benefit from the influx of data. Numerous operations and resources have to be performed and deployed — including data transformation on raw OMICS input, data security, and integrity as well as the adoption of data standards, including ontologies — for the foundation upon which cleaned and curated data can be queried to extract meaningful and reliable information and help identify trends.
Industry experts Manuel Duval, PhD, Bioinformatician at Scientist.com, Dan Ryder, PhD, Director of Bioinformatics at BISC Global, Andrew Brown, PhD, Principal Bioinformatic Scientist at Arrayo and Jean Claude Zenklusen, PhD, Director of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) will cover topics that will include how bioinformatics can effectively manage large datasets created by researchers in the life sciences, incorporating the power of machine learning in the life sciences and how bioinformatics can enable biomedical research and potentially advance drug discovery.
