Cyberinfrastructure for Life Sciences -iAnimal Resources for Genomics and Other Data Driven Biology

2014
Whole genome sequence, SNPs, copy number variation, phenotypes and other “-omics” data underlie evidence-based estimations of breeding value. Unfortunately, the computational resources (data storage, high-performance computing, analysis pipelines, etc.) that exploit this knowledge are limited in availability – many investigations are therefore ...

Life science research and data management—what can they give each other?

ACM SIGMOD Record, 2004
"Databases for the life sciences" is not really a newly emerging area in databases. The Nucleotide Sequence Database from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) has been operational at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) since 1980. SWISS-PROT, the classical database containing protein information, was established in 1986.

Refined JST Thesaurus Extended with Data from Other Open Life Science Data Sources

2017
We are developing a refined Japan Science and Technology (JST) thesaurus with thirty-five relations to enable description of rigorous relationships among concepts. In this study, we prepared an environment for performing SPARQL queries and evaluated the JST thesaurus in the life sciences by comparing query results with the originals.

A digital technology‐based introductory biology course designed for engineering and other non‐life sciences STEM majors

Computer Applications in Engineering Education, 2018
AbstractSTEM education reform stresses the importance of a comprehensive understanding of science fundamentals and the development of science and engineering practices. As such, many engineering students must complete a core set of courses, including biology; however, this course is often designed for life sciences majors. One solution to this mismatch

The Story of Ergot: for Physicians, Pharmacists, Nurses, Biochemists, Biologists and Others Interested in the Life Sciences

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1970
The author has embodied an interesting and valuable concept in an excellent book. The story of one particular drug, presented from several different viewpoints, can, if well told, hold great fascination and have a broad appeal. Bove's work on ergot does precisely this and will interest a wide range of readers. The book has three major divisions.

Critical appraisal of jointness concepts in Bayesian model averaging: evidence from life sciences, sociology, and other scientific fields

Journal of Applied Statistics, 2017
ABSTRACTJointness is a Bayesian approach to capturing dependence among regressors in multivariate data. It addresses the general issue of whether explanatory factors for a given empirical phenomenon are complements or substitutes. I ask a number of questions about existing jointness concepts: Are the patterns revealed stable across datasets?

Wechselwirkung in the Life and Other Sciences: A Word, New Claims and a Concept Around 1800 … and Much Later

1994
Interrelationship (or e.g. interrelatedness2) is, and continues to be, one of the central terms of ecology or, even more generally, of the environmental sciences. I shall not and most probably cannot answer the question: what is ecology? There are many who believe to know what it is and hopefully there are many in the future who want to know what it is;
