Forum:Bioinformatics independent study group

Question

[Leite]

Hello everyone.

I'm looking for Phd or Phd students, who would like to create a group an independent study group.

The idea would be a group of 3 ~ 4 researchers, who would work together in 1 parallel project and different that we work in our projetic in the university.

We would reuse public databases like PRIDE Archive and Omnibus, and then We would construction and analysis the network and do the other topological analyzes, enrichment analysis of GO function and KEGG pathway, molecular complex detection (MCODE) and others, looking for insight into the pathology.

And try to publish the paper, Journal like GENE and other journals, have published many works with this approach.

So, for this group that I am trying to create, those interested have to have a good skill with:

1. R "Limma is a package for the analysis of gene expression" (Required)
2. Biological interactions network "System Biology"
3. Biology (Cancer, rare or neurological diseases)
4. working in a group

Best Regards,

Leite

Hi, why does the profile link to my scholar page? Would you please correct it? Thanks!

I am not related to this group or anything related to this post

[GenoMax]

Where does it link to a specific page? I don't think @Liete has that link setup.

[Charles Yin]

when you @Leite's profile, but it links to my Google profile. This link was an error in the profile setting. I am not related to @Leite or any posts.

[GenoMax]

I see a generic "scholar.google.com blah PhD student" link in @Leite's profile (I don't see anything in your profile). If I click on @Leite's link it asks me to create a google scholar profile. If you have a google scholar profile created then perhaps that link is taking you to your own profile.

[Leite]

@Genebow I particularly could not see where my profile links to yours.

[Charles Yin]

Probably it was browser cache issue. It should be good now.

[Fabio Marroni]

I think it will links to the profile of any person clicking on it. If I click on it it links to my profile (even if done in Incognito) :-)

[Charles Yin]

If this problem occurs to other users, the system (biostars) needs to address it. Thanks.

[Fabio Marroni]

I think it has nothing to do with Biostars, but with the fact that the scholar user that is specified does not exist and thus scholars redirect you to your own page. Try to change

http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=PhD%20student

to

http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=fakityfake

And the same will happen

[Charles Yin]

Got it! Google just fools us sometimes...

Answer 1

[ATpoint]

With all due respect, like 2 weeks ago you posted a question about how to get started with R and limma and now you propose to found an independent research group?! What in the world are you doing? Do you have funding of any kind?

[Leite]

@ATPoint

I did post that I was learning LIMMA and I'm still trying to learn it, but I want to join with people who understand this to be able to do a group of studies and research.

I have a good base of systems biology and other bioinformatics tools.

Now you propose to found an independent research group?!

So, is it not permissible to join with 3~4 people and study together, or work together on an article? or maybe I used the wrong term for the group.

What in the world are you doing? Trying to learn and you?

Do you have funding of any kind?

To study with other people with equal ideas and try to produce articles do you need to have a funding? Is not anything done for the love of science?

[steve]

you might want to rephrase your post as a "study group" and not a "research group" then

[Leite]

Dear @steve,

Thank you for your suggestion! I agree.

Answer 2

[Charles Yin]

You may join a research group in your local area as volunteer, in which you are interested. Research needs a lot of in-person discussions.

[Leite]

@Genebow I'm thinking about it too.

Answer 3

[nora]

you are mentioned the conditions, but you did not explain exactly what the work will be, on what subject, why bioinformaticians accept the cordination with you. you must to explain what you have as more can not be found elsewhere thank's

[Leite]

Dear @yassmine,

The idea is through public databases, reanalyzing this data and creating networks of interactions looking for insight into a rare disease or a type of cancer.

I'm looking for people who know R, because I'm particularly new in it. I understand well of biological interactions, PPI network, genetic ontology and very well about biomedical sciences.
