Analysis Environments for Functional Genomics [Powerpoint]
 
Graduate School of Library and Information Science; Institute for Genomic Biology
 www.canis.uiuc.edu and www.beespace.uiuc.edu

Analysis environments are information systems that integrate biomedical data across many sources.  They support pattern discovery in the large, interactively by biologists.  This lecture contrasts pre-genome approaches to post-genome approaches, as part of the trends in information systems from syntax to semantics.  Interactive environments are intended for top-down functional analysis, e.g. suggesting candidate genes from partial information in biological literature and genome databases.  This lecture outlines the computer science research technologies now available for building analysis environments -- in natural language processing, information retrieval, and database management.  Specific examples are given from the BeeSpace project, which is building an analysis environment for functional analysis of social behavior, funded by a flagship NSF grant.
