New software scripts for addressing research questions

Advanced next generation genome sequencing and proteomics techniques are having a major influence on how research questions are being addressed and also in defining newly addressable questions within the PSB IGERT program. Analyses of large sequencing and mass spectrometry data sets requires development of new software scripts for addressing research questions of our IGERT students. We thus have supported IGERT students to attend workshops for scripting and learning new needed skills, including programming in “R”. Interdisciplinary training of IGERT students has enabled them to learn to work with and advance their research. Throughout this research, IGERT students have learned a great deal about how to develop tools for effectively using large next generation sequencing and mass spectrometry data sets to answer fundamental questions in biology. Publications and unpublished results of J. Nelson, D. Barrera, M. Schultz, R. Sartor, N. Castellana are showing success using these new tools.
