Zaproszenie na seminarium Instytutu Informatyki – 5 lutego 2025

Instytut Informatyki serdecznie zaprasza na seminarium, które odbędzie się w środę, 5 lutego 2025 r. o godzinie 13:15 w sali 130.

W trakcie seminarium Pan dr Łukasz Huminiecki wygłosi wykład pt. „Leveraging Gene Expression Omnibus, FANTOM/Zenbu/CAGEr, and TreeFam: Case Studies in Functional Genomics Databases and Software”.

Abstrakt wykładu:
Since 1997, I have leveraged functional genomics databases and computational tools to drive research in computational genetics and bioinformatics, resulting in the publication of 50 peer-reviewed papers. My work includes large-scale data mining of the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) to extract insights into complex diseases such as COVID-19 and the molecular mechanisms of anticancer phytochemicals, including curcumin and resveratrol. Additionally, I have applied advanced data analysis methods to build novel functional and evolutionary gene models, utilizing resources such as the FANTOM and TreeFam databases. In this presentation, I will explore several case studies illustrating the application of these databases in uncovering biological patterns and advancing our understanding of gene function and evolution.

Po wystąpieniu przewidziana jest dyskusja oraz możliwość zadawania pytań prelegentowi.

Serdecznie zapraszamy wszystkich zainteresowanych!
