Joy Goffena from the University of Washington presented at London Calling 2025. The title of the session was "Variant phasing for antisense oligonucleotide design using adaptive sampling." Goffena explained antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) technology as short DNA or RNA that can bind target RNA to block translation or even modulate splicing. The goal of their work...

Ultra-Fast Classifiers for Pediatric Tumors: Insights from Lennart Kester
I am back from SABER and getting settled. Tonight I watched Lennart Kester from the Princess Maxima Center in The Netherlands present on "Ultra-fast deep-learned classification algorithms for diagnosing pediatric CNS and solid tumors" at London Calling 2025. Kester explained that over the years they have observed an increase in the number of tumor entities,...

Explore MetaPathPredict and OMEGGA: Tools for Bioinformatics
Tonight I watched another KBase Science Session: Data integration to support (or refute) predictions. "Integrating data to predict functions for gaps in metabolic models" was the title of Bill Nelson's session. Nelson is from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The work was part of two PNNL SFA projects: a soil microbiome project and a persistence...
