1. Evolutionary and Pharmacological Studies of NPY and QRFP Receptors
Abstract : The neuropeptide Y (NPY) system consists of 3-4 peptides and 4-7 receptors in vertebrates. It has powerful effects on appetite regulation and is involved in many other biological processes including blood pressure regulation, bone formation and anxiety. READ MORE

2. Development of Computational Methods for Cancer Research: Strategies for closing the feedback loop in omics workflows
Abstract : As the ultimate workhorses of the living things, proteins undergo significant regulatory activity throughout the lifetime of a cell or an organism. Many complex diseases effect the protein composition, expression or modification in the cells or tissues they arise in. READ MORE

3. Development of Molecular Biology and Bioinformatics Tools : From Hydrogen Evolution to Cell Division in Cyanobacteria
Abstract : The use of fossil fuels presents a particularly interesting challenge - our society strongly depends on coal and oil, but we are aware that their use is damaging the environment. Currently, this awareness is gaining momentum, and pressure to evolve towards an energetically cleaner planet is very strong. READ MORE

4. Machine Learning Enabled Functional Discovery in Yeast Systems Biology
Abstract : Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a well-studied organism, yet roughly 20 percent of its proteins remain poorly characterized. Recent studies also seem to indicate that the pace of functional discovery is slow. READ MORE

5. Prediction of zinc-binding sites in proteins and efficient protein structure description and comparison
Abstract : A large number of proteins require certain metals to stabilize their structures or to function properly. About one third of all proteins in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) contain metals and it is estimated that approximately the same proportion of all proteins are metalloproteins. READ MORE
