Computational Biology: Growing Field Melds Big Computers And Life Sciences
Franklin Hoke | Dec 6, 1992 | 8 min read
Sciences Date: December 7, 1992 The energetic young field of computational biology is looking to the coming generation of massively parallel computers for its future, researchers say. These machines, enhanced by the contributions of computer scientists who are developing innovative programming tactics, will be crucial in allowing biological researchers to reach ambitious goals. "Parallel computers are going to let this field take off," says Andrew McCammon, a theoretical chemist at the Unive
Computing Gene Regulation
David Secko | Jun 20, 2004 | 6 min read
TRANSCRIPTIONAL DIVERSITY:Horst Feldmann, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität MüchenTranscription by Pol II is dependent on a number of multi-subunit complexes including TFIID, a general transcription factor complex, and SAGA. Both deliver the TATA-box binding protein (TBP) to promoters and they share a number of TBP associated factors (TAFs). While they have overlapping contributions to gene expression, TFIID function appears to dominate gene regulation at 90% of the measurable genome, mos

Computers Add New Twists To Medical School Training
Steven Benowitz | Mar 2, 1997 | 9 min read
"Physicians will not be able to practice medicine in the next century without computers. Individual hospitals and medical centers will have their own intranets, as will health care systems." Robert Trelstad,Professor and Chairman of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine,Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. THE TIME FACTOR: Southwestern’s M. David Low says medical school faculty may worry about development time for computer-based instruction. Most physicians and educators agree that computer
