Statistical method scDEED for detecting dubious 2D single-cell embeddings and optimizing t-SNE and UMAP hyperparameters – Kevin Spinicci

B232 Seminar Room, IBS 55 Expo-ro Yuseong-gu, Daejeon

In this talk, we discuss the paper "Statistical method scDEED for detecting dubious 2D single-cell embeddings and optimizing t-SNE and UMAP hyperparameters" by L. Xia et.al. Nature Communications, 2024. Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) embedding methods are crucial for single-cell data visualization. Popular methods such as t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) and uniform manifold approximation and projection

Circadian rhythm analysis using wearable-based accelerometry as a digital biomarker of aging and healthspan – Yun Min Song

B232 Seminar Room, IBS 55 Expo-ro Yuseong-gu, Daejeon

In this talk, we discuss the paper "Circadian rhythm analysis using wearable-based accelerometry as a digital biomarker of aging and healthspan" by J. Shim et.al., npj digital medicine, 2024. Abstract Recognizing the pivotal role of circadian rhythm in the human aging process and its scalability through wearables, we introduce CosinorAge, a digital biomarker of aging

Jooyoung Hahn – Topological Data Analysis with two applications: Tumor Microenvironment and 2D Chromatography with High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry

B232 Seminar Room, IBS 55 Expo-ro Yuseong-gu, Daejeon

Abstract  Topological Data Analysis (TDA) has emerged as a powerful framework for uncovering meaningful structure in high-dimensional, complex datasets. In this talk, we present two applications of TDA in analyzing patterns, one in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and the other in high-resolution chemical profiling. In the first case, we develop a TDA-based framework to quantify malignant-immune cell interactions
