We are partecipating to the Alpaca project (ALgorithms for PAngenome Computational Analysis); an EU funded Innovative Training Network for talented PhD Students. In view of ultra-large amounts of genome sequence data emerging from rapidly advancing genome sequencing devices the driving, urgent question is: How can we arrange and analyze these data masses in a formally […]
Read MoreWe are leading the PANGAIA project (Pangenome Graph Algorithms and Data Integration); a EU funded project for filling the gap between the rapidly increasing power of DNA sequencing technologies and the current limitations in resolving the inherent complexity of the forthcoming volumes of data.The leitmotif is to train young researchers in the area of computational […]
Read MoreJune 21st, 2019 Univ. Milano-Bicocca. U6 Building – Room Martini (floor -1). Theme and scope Computational Pangenomics wants to produce the computational tools for transitioning from a sequence-based genome to graph-based reference genomes, where variants of huge cohorts are represented in a unified way. Transcriptomics was the first field where the need of imposing a […]
Read MoreDescrizione Recenti sviluppi riguardanti terapie specializzate per il trattamento di tumorali si basano su una accurata inferenza della progressione della malattia. Riuscire a capire l’ordine e la frequenza con cui le variazione somatiche vengono acquisite durante una progressione tumorale può aiutare a meglio definire strategie specifiche di trattamento della malattia. Recentemente il laboratorio di ricerca […]

Read MoreRECOMB 2018 is the 22nd edition of a series of well-established scientific conferences bridging the areas of computational, mathematical, statistical and biological sciences. The 2018 edition was held in Paris from April, 21st through 24th of 2018, and was preceded by a series of satellite workshops on the 19th-20th of April. Luca Denti and Murray […]
Read MoreThis is the first PhD-level course on the design and the analysis of efficient algorithms, with a strong emphasis on theoretical aspects. The prerequisites are a very basic knowledge of graph theory and computational complexity, as well as a good understanding of undergraduate-level courses of algorithms, discrete mathematics, and operation research. It is not necessary […]
Read MoreJanuary 26th, 2018 Univ. Milano-Bicocca. Building U14 – Room Aula Seminari Theme and scope The ever increasing amount of biological data available requires more efficient tools for managing and analyzing those data. While a widely used line of attack is to throw huge computational resources at the problem and using known methods as black boxes […]
Read MoreWhen 26 July 2017 Where Sala Seminari, U14, DISCo, Univ. Milano-Bicocca Why We are witnessing an explosion in the availability of data, ranging from social media interactions, to biological sequences, to sensor data, which share the huge availability and low cost. Since those data are, by far, impractical or impossible to keep in memory, we […]
