We will discuss about "Information Integration and Energy Expenditure in Gene Regulation", Estrada et al., Cell, 2016 Abstract: The quantitative concepts used to reason about gene regulation largely derive from bacterial studies. We show that this bacterial paradigm cannot explain the sharp expression of a canonical developmental gene in response to a regulating transcription factor …
디지털 표현형의 진단 및 치료적 적용 조철현(세종충남대학교병원) 디지털 표현형(digital phenotype)은 각 개개인이 일상생활에서 사용하는 다양한 디지털 기기를 통해서 실시간으로 얻어지는 다양한 형태의 데이터를 뜻하는 것으로, 디지털 기기의 사용이 보편화되면서 의료적 적용에 대한 가능성이 한층 높아지고 있다. 디지털 표현형은 이전에는 측정(measure)하기 힘들었던 영역에 대한 측정을 가능케 함으로써, 의학적 평가나 진단적인 측면에서 임상적 함의를 갖는다고 볼 수 …
We will discuss about "The Generalized Multiset Sampler", Kim and MacEachern, The Journal of Computation and Graphical Statistics, 2021 Abstract: The multiset sampler, an MCMC algorithm recently proposed by Leman and coauthors, is an easy-to-implement algorithm which is especially well-suited to drawing samples from a multimodal distribution. We generalize the algorithm by redefining the multiset …
In adult tissues, stem cells undergo clonal competition because they proliferate while the stem cell niche provides limited space. This clonal competition allows the selection of healthy stem cells over time as unfit stem cells tend to lose from the competition. It could also be a mechanism to select a supercompetitor with tumorigenic mutations, which …
Abstract: Inside living cells, chemical reactions form a large web of networks. Understanding the behavior of those complex reaction networks is an important and challenging problem. In many situations, it is hard to identify the details of the reactions, such as the reaction kinetics and parameter values. It would be good if we can clarify …

We will discuss about "Fundamental limits on the suppression of molecular fluctuations", Lestas et al, Nature, 2010 Abstract: Negative feedback is common in biological processes and can increase a system’s stability to internal and external perturbations. But at the molecular level, control loops always involve signalling steps with finite rates for random births and deaths …
We will discuss about "Quasi-Entropy Closure: A Fast and Reliable Approach to Close the Moment Equations of the Chemical Master Equation", Wagner et al, bioRxiv, 2021 Motivation: The Chemical Master Equation is the most comprehensive stochastic approach to describe the evolution of a (bio-)chemical reaction system. Its solution is a time-dependent probability distribution on all …
본 발표에서는 다양한 기초 생명-의학 분야에서 생성되고 있는 오믹스 자료의 연구 개발 현황에 대해서 다룰 예정이다. 보다 큰 규모로, 보다 빠르게, 보다 정확하게, 보다 정밀하게 라는 궁극적인 목표하에 이뤄지고 있는 오믹스 자료의 진화에 발맞춰, 이를 분석하는 수리통계적 모형 역시 진화하고 있다. 그 중, 이번 발표에서는 미국의 초 대형 정밀의료 프로젝트인 TopMed에서 진행하고 있는 COPD에 관한 …
We will discuss about "Network design principle for robust oscillatory behaviors with respect to biological noise", Qiao et al, bioRxiv, 2021 Oscillatory behaviors, which are ubiquitous in transcriptional regulatory networks, are often subject to inevitable biological noise. Thus a natural question is how transcriptional regulatory networks can robustly achieve accurate oscillation in the presence of …
Abstract: Variable selection is an approach to identifying a set of covariates that are truly important to explain the feature of a response variable. It is closely connected or belongs to model selection approaches. This talk provides a gentle introduction to Bayesian variable selection methods. The basic notion of variable selection is introduced, followed by several Bayesian approaches with a simple application example.
We will discuss about "Mechanisms for the generation of robust circadian oscillations through ultrasensitivity and differential binding affinity", Behera, Junco, and Vaikuntanathan, The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2021 Biochemical circadian rhythm oscillations play an important role in many signaling mechanisms. In this work, we explore some of the biophysical mechanisms responsible for sustaining robust …
