Table of Contents: All Volumes. Research in a teaching institution. 20 short tutorials all data scientists should read (and practice) The Tree of Life. Multa novit vulpes. Peccoud Lab. DNAFactory: A Gene Synthesis Game We present our very first video game!
Targeted toward middle- and high-school students, DNAFactory demonstrates the steps a Gene Synthesis factory or laboratory would go through to produce DNA molecules; specifically, when creating a DNA sample, the target sequence is subdivided into shorter DNA fragments called oligos, which can be synthesized using a chemical process. […] Evolution and Genomics. PhD Student in Biostatistics at Johns Hopkins. Last semester, John Muschelli and I had to collaborate on two class projects, one consisting of writing a report for a DNA methylation data analysis, the other about presenting a fascinating paper on the asymptotics of subsampling estimators.
That means we had 3 latex documents — one article and two beamer presentations that we were simultaneously working on every day (and every night). Synchronizing the files, even if we both use regularly version control (like GitHub or BitBucket), would have been a nightmare: who really wants to commit every 30 seconds? Thankfully, John knew about shareLatex, and I called it an end-of-semester miracle. Here is why shareLatex is awesome: Notes from the life of a bioinformatician.
