  • Applied Category Theory for Genomics – an Initiative
    Applied Category Theory for Genomics { An Initiative Yanying Wu1,2 1Centre for Neural Circuits and Behaviour, University of Oxford, UK 2Department of Physiology, Anatomy and Genetics, University of Oxford, UK 06 Sept, 2020 Abstract The ultimate secret of all lives on earth is hidden in their genomes { a totality of DNA sequences. We currently know the whole genome sequence of many organisms, while our understanding of the genome architecture on a systematic level remains rudimentary. Applied category theory opens a promising way to integrate the humongous amount of heterogeneous informations in genomics, to advance our knowledge regarding genome organization, and to provide us with a deep and holistic view of our own genomes. In this work we explain why applied category theory carries such a hope, and we move on to show how it could actually do so, albeit in baby steps. The manuscript intends to be readable to both mathematicians and biologists, therefore no prior knowledge is required from either side. arXiv:2009.02822v1 [q-bio.GN] 6 Sep 2020 1 Introduction DNA, the genetic material of all living beings on this planet, holds the secret of life. The complete set of DNA sequences in an organism constitutes its genome { the blueprint and instruction manual of that organism, be it a human or fly [1]. Therefore, genomics, which studies the contents and meaning of genomes, has been standing in the central stage of scientific research since its birth. The twentieth century witnessed three milestones of genomics research [1]. It began with the discovery of Mendel's laws of inheritance [2], sparked a climax in the middle with the reveal of DNA double helix structure [3], and ended with the accomplishment of a first draft of complete human genome sequences [4].

He joined the faculty of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, rising through the ranks from instructor to professor of genetics. In 1987, he moved to Genentech, Inc. as vice president–science, and, in 1990, he joined Stanford University’s School of Medicine, where he was chairman of the Department of Genetics. In July, 2003 he became director of the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics and the Anthony B. Evnin ’62 Professor of Genomics at Princeton University. David’s research has centered on genetics, especially the use of genetic methods to understand biological functions. His early work in bacterial genetics contributed to the discovery of transposable elements in bacteria and an understanding of their physical structures and genetic properties. In the early 1970s, he turned to budding yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and devised novel genetic methods to study the functions of the actin and tubulin cytoskeletons.

  • Celebrating Years of 60Science Welcome to the 60Th Anni- Versary Symposium of the Miller Institute
    Celebrating Years of 60Science Welcome to the 60th Anni- versary Symposium of the Miller Institute. In an age of ever increasing special- ization, the Miller Institute stands apart as one of the very few enterprises to embrace all of Science as its purview. For 60 years the Miller Institute has provided generous sup- port to some of the lead- ing postdoctoral fellows in all fields of science, has supported extended visits from famous scientists from around the world, and has provided critical adminis- trative and teaching relief for Berkeley faculty at par- ticularly important points in their career. This grand tradition lives on, even in the face of ever-greater challenges, with a refresh- ing emphasis on clarity in cross-discipline communi- cation. We have assembled a panel of eight luminaries drawn from past and pres- ent members of the Miller Institute each of whom leads their field with cre- ative research at the fron- tiers of human knowledge. So relax, enjoy, and be sure to ask that question that you always wanted to have answered.

Newark, New Jersey. It is fundamental in our purpose, and our express desire, that in the appointments to the staff and faculty, as well as in the admission of workers and students, no account shall be taken, directly or indirectly, of race, religion, or sex. We feel strongly that the spirit characteristic of America at its noblest, above all the pursuit of higher learning, cannot admit of any conditions as to personnel other than those designed to promote the objects for which this institution is established, and particularly with no regard whatever to accidents of race, creed, or sex.

  • Report and Recommendations of the Panel to Assess the Nih Investment in Research on Gene Therapy
    REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE PANEL TO ASSESS THE NIH INVESTMENT IN RESEARCH ON GENE THERAPY Stuart H. Orkin, M.D. Arno G. Motulsky, M.D. Co-chairs December 7, 1995 Executive Summary of Findings and Recommendations Dr. Harold Varmus, Director, National Institutes of Health (NIH), appointed an ad hoc committee to assess the current status and promise of gene therapy and provide recommendations regarding future NIH-sponsored research in this area. The Panel was asked specifically to comment on how funds and efforts should be distributed among various research areas and what funding mechanisms would be most effective in meeting research goals. The Panel finds that: 1. Somatic gene therapy is a logical and natural progression in the application of fundamental biomedical science to medicine and offers extraordinary potential, in the long-term, for the management and correction of human disease, including inherited and acquired disorders, cancer, and AIDS. The concept that gene transfer might be used to treat disease is founded on the remarkable advances of the past two decades in recombinant DNA technology. The types of diseases under consideration for gene therapy are diverse; hence, many different treatment strategies are being investigated, each with its own set of scientific and clinical challenges. 2. While the expectations and the promise of gene therapy are great, clinical efficacy has not been definitively demonstrated at this time in any gene therapy protocol, despite anecdotal claims of successful therapy and the initiation of more than 100 Recombinant DNA Advisory Committee (RAC)-approved protocols. 3. Significant problems remain in all basic aspects of gene therapy.
