  • 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].

    October 14, 2014 u vol. 111 u no. 41 u 14637–14960 Cover image: Pictured is a duck during feeding. Ducks and other tactile foraging birds rely on their sense of touch, rather than sight, to feed in murky water. Eve R. Schneider et al. found that the trigeminal ganglia in duck bills contain a high number of neurons hypersensitive to mechanical stimuli. Multiplication of mechanosensitive neurons, however, may reduce the number of thermosensitive neurons. This tradeoff may confer an advantage on tactile foraging birds, which can tolerate cold water temperatures without diminishing feeding efficiency.

  • Kazutoshi Mori and Peter Walter Receive the 2014 Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award
    Kazutoshi Mori and Peter Walter receive the 2014 Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award Corinne L. Williams J Clin Invest. 2014;124(10):4138-4142. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI78419. News Cells are continuously faced with life-and-death decisions based on their ability to handle stressful situations. One indicator of stress is the accumulation of unfolded proteins within the ER, which induces a transcriptional cascade aimed at increasing the folding capacity of the ER. If the burden is too great and homeostasis cannot be restored, the response shifts from damage control to the induction of apoptotic pathways. This unfolded protein response (UPR) is conserved among all eukaryotes, and dysfunction in this pathway underlies many human diseases, including diabetes and cancer. The 2014 Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research award honors Kazutoshi Mori of Kyoto University and Peter Walter of the UCSF (Figure 1) for their contributions toward unraveling the pathways involved in mediating the complex cellular response to ER stress. A simple question In the 1970s, the identification of a set of proteins that were induced in response to viral transformation set the stage for understanding heat shock-independent cellular stress responses. These particular proteins were constitutively present in cells and notably increased in response to glucose deprivation (1) or agents that block post-translational glycosylation, such as tunicamycin. Based on this apparent glucose-dependent regulation, they became known as glucose-regulated proteins (GRPs). One

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.
