When visuals gone wrong ...

If you are in biosciences related work many times you have seen a fabulous but meaning-less image in the sci papers, typical error to represent data with wrong visuals perceptions, M. E. J. Newman named "Ridiculograms" (you can see the related video in Youtube). A ridiculogram can be defined as: Visual stunning Scientifically worthless Published in Nature or Science After a group discussion and a no so good seminar about text mining for disease terms, some agree that the last point can not be required, I want to extend this concept to other parts in bioinformatics. Many people are working in the user interaction part, novel technologies have large and heavy output and require some tools to show the results, but many of this tools are redundant (yes, many people want a desktop/web/network interfaces or some programs for Linux/Windows/Mac or versions in Java/C#/Python/Perl) and while the developers think "in the user experience", they forget the concept of the tool: ...

New project start

The Institute for Systems Biology will collaborate with the University of Luxembourg to create the Center for Systems Biology Luxembourg. The Center will participate with ISB on two basic research projects designed to provide greater insight into the identification of disease and to enable more effective treatments: -- ISB Research Project 1: The first project will include completion of a personalized human genome sequencing map on a minimum of one hundred subjects and development of new methods for understanding the role of genetic variations in disease, leading to new insights into diagnosis, treatment and prevention. -- ISB Research Project 2: The second project is development of integrated systems proteomics, RNA and cell analysis methodology and tools based on ISB's groundbreaking discovery of protein blood "fingerprints" and single-cell characteristics that can report on the physiological state of the body's 50 major organs. The res...

Old computers Dream

Image
I own a little old laptop (it was owned by a very good friend, traded in a perfect time for us). It's a HP pavilion ZT1114, PIII @ 1GHz, only 256 Mb in RAM, no battery, I recently change the HD. The computer is still working well, except for versions of heavy Linux can run but response time is slow. Long time I used in this machine Mandriva , from 2007 to 2009 releases, changing the default desktop to XFCE to save memory and optimizing the system, also I tried Puppy Linux and other minimalistic Linux distributions. But always I feel something missing, an ultimate Linux distro with fast performance. Until few weeks I noted the new release of DreamLinux , a Debian based distro with a pretty and fast desktop (XFCE). I had installed last week and after one week of use, I like it! Everything works well. The AWN bar looks like MacOS X. The Debian stability and large collection of packages. EasyInstall application is really useful. DCP-Control panel works well. Of course not everything w...
