GeneXplain Webseminar

“A computationally aided strategy to recover gene activity profiles from post-mortem HIV+ brain specimens” will be presented by Dr. Cecilia Marcondes, Associate Professor at San Diego Biomedical Research Institute, on Wednesday, May 19^th at 11am (CDT). Hosted by GeneXplain, Dr. will discuss her group’s attempt to overcome a challenge in the research of human tissue, where post-mortem intervals may impair the retrieval of quality information from the transcriptome. Using epigenetic marks and computational analytical strategies, her group has successfully identified gene networks associated with the critical biological processes in post-mortem brains from HIV+ cases.
