    Janet Thornton Bioinformatician avant la lettre Michael Gross B ioinformatics is very much a buzzword of our time, with new courses and institutes dedicated to it sprouting up almost everywhere. Most significantly, the flood of genome data has raised the gen- eral awareness of the need to deve-lop new computational approaches to make sense of all the raw information collected. Professor Janet Thornton, the current director of the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI), an EMBL outpost based at the Hinxton campus near Cambridge, has been in the field even before there was a word for it. Coming to structural biology with a physics degree from the University of Nottingham, she was already involved with computer-generated structural im- ages in the 1970s, when personal comput- ers and user-friendly programs had yet to be invented.

  • Functional Effects Detailed Research Plan
    GeCIP Detailed Research Plan Form Background The Genomics England Clinical Interpretation Partnership (GeCIP) brings together researchers, clinicians and trainees from both academia and the NHS to analyse, refine and make new discoveries from the data from the 100,000 Genomes Project. The aims of the partnerships are: 1. To optimise: • clinical data and sample collection • clinical reporting • data validation and interpretation. 2. To improve understanding of the implications of genomic findings and improve the accuracy and reliability of information fed back to patients. To add to knowledge of the genetic basis of disease. 3. To provide a sustainable thriving training environment. The initial wave of GeCIP domains was announced in June 2015 following a first round of applications in January 2015. On the 18th June 2015 we invited the inaugurated GeCIP domains to develop more detailed research plans working closely with Genomics England. These will be used to ensure that the plans are complimentary and add real value across the GeCIP portfolio and address the aims and objectives of the 100,000 Genomes Project. They will be shared with the MRC, Wellcome Trust, NIHR and Cancer Research UK as existing members of the GeCIP Board to give advance warning and manage funding requests to maximise the funds available to each domain. However, formal applications will then be required to be submitted to individual funders. They will allow Genomics England to plan shared core analyses and the required research and computing infrastructure to support the proposed research. They will also form the basis of assessment by the Project’s Access Review Committee, to permit access to data.

  • A Phylogenomic Study of Human, Dog, and Mouse
    A Phylogenomic Study of Human, Dog, and Mouse Gina Cannarozzi, Adrian Schneider, Gaston Gonnet* Institute of Computational Science, ETH Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland In recent years the phylogenetic relationship of mammalian orders has been addressed in a number of molecular studies. These analyses have frequently yielded inconsistent results with respect to some basal ordinal relationships. For example, the relative placement of primates, rodents, and carnivores has differed in various studies. Here, we attempt to resolve this phylogenetic problem by using data from completely sequenced nuclear genomes to base the analyses on the largest possible amount of data. To minimize the risk of reconstruction artifacts, the trees were reconstructed under different criteria—distance, parsimony, and likelihood. For the distance trees, distance metrics that measure independent phenomena (amino acid replacement, synonymous substitution, and gene reordering) were used, as it is highly improbable that all of the trees would be affected the same way by any reconstruction artifact. In contradiction to the currently favored classification, our results based on full-genome analysis of the phylogenetic relationship between human, dog, and mouse yielded overwhelming support for a primate–carnivore clade with the exclusion of rodents. Citation: Cannarozzi G, Schneider A, Gonnet G (2007) A phylogenomic study of human, dog, and mouse.
