DESCRIPTION provided by applicant The academic iobio project delivers web based applications that visualize and provide real time interactive analysis with multiple different data types generated as part of next generation sequencing projects These applications are open source and provided for free This proposal aims to develop critical computational infrastructure to enable the iobio project ...

Because of its high sensitivity polymerase chain reaction PCR is the gold standard for the diagnosis of many infectious diseases but generally only implemented in well equipped laboratories One of the major roadblocks for expanding PCR to point of care markets is the lack of simple robust single tube PCR designs which preserve its laboratory based high sensitivity and specificity In this F ...

The modern warfighter faces the constant threat of endemic infections, multi-drug resistant bacteria and Biological Warfare Agents. In order to provide accurate front-line treatment that will curtail the overuse of antibiotics, a rapid and robust molecula

PROJECT SUMMARY Type diabetes T D is a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects of population worldwide Exogenous insulin treatment is the standard of care for T D but often negatively affects the quality of life and is ineffective in preventing recurrent hyperglycemia episodes and chronic complications Recent studies show that human islet allografts can restore long term normoglycemia ...

Project Summary Identifying disease causing genetic variants is a complex process that requires experts from multiple fields including bioinformatics IT systems administration and disease pathology to work closely together The size of sequencing data files also adds the requirement for large computational resources As a result performing genomic analyses is an ...
