3. In silico prediction of CIS-regulatory elements
Abstract : As one of the most fundamental processes for all life forms, transcriptional regulation remains an intriguing and challenging subject for biomedical research. Experimental efforts towards understanding the regulation of genes is laborious and expensive, but can be substantially accelerated with the use of computational predictions. READ MORE

4. Resampling in network modeling of high-dimensional genomic data
Abstract : Network modeling is an effective approach for the interpretation of high-dimensional data sets for which a sparse dependence structure can be assumed. Genomic data is a challenging and important example. In genomics, network modeling aids the discovery of biological mechanistic relationships and therapeutic targets. READ MORE

5. Selectivity in NMR and LC-MS Metabolomics : The Importance of Sample Preparation and Separation, and how to Measure Selectivity in LC-MS Metabolomics
Abstract : Until now, most metabolomics protocols have been optimized towards high sample throughput and high metabolite coverage, parameters considered to be highly important for identifying influenced biological pathways and to generate as many potential biomarkers as possible. From an analytical point of view this can be troubling, as neither sample throughput nor the number of signals relates to actual quality of the detected signals/metabolites. READ MORE
