MolEvolvR BTS: When and how to build a web-app and software package?

We recently developed a web application, MolEvolvR, to characterize proteins using molecular evolution and phylogeny. This session will serve as a behind-the-scenes (BTS) sneak peek into what MolEvolvR does, how it does it, and its origin story. The …

Cross-database integration using evolution and machine learning to identify multiscale molecular building blocks for antibiotic resistance

Using Tidyverse for Genomics

This workshop presents how to analyze & visualize processed transcriptomic data. This workshop is divided in 5 parts: Part 1: Getting started w/ `readr` Part 2: Reshaping data w/ `tidyr` Part 3: Data wrangling w/ `dplyr` Part 4: Visualizing tidy …

MolEvolvR: a web-app for characterizing proteins using molecular evolution and phylogeny

Studying proteins through the lens of evolution can help identify conserved features and lineage-specific variants, and potentially, their functions. MolEvolvR (http://jravilab.org/molevolvr) is a web-app that enables researchers to run a …

How I teach Life Scientists to Build Inclusive Communities

Key “take home” points: 1. How to engage and bring together those underrepresented in STEAM? 2. What are useful formats to engage a diverse audience? 3. How to identify co-organizers, speakers, sources of funding?

Strategies to build a strong diverse AsiaR community

MolEvolvR: A webapp for characterizing proteins using molecular evolution and phylogeny

Studying how bacterial pathogenic proteins evolve can help identify lineage-specific and pathogen-specific signatures and variants, and consequently, their functions. We have developed a streamlined computational approach for characterizing the …

Incubator: Stop reinventing the wheel: R package(s) for conference and abstract management

The ability to host an entire conference online went from nice-to-have to absolutely essential for many communities within just a bit more than a year. As a consequence, online conference tools were exposed to a wider audience, faced tougher …

MolEvolvR: Web-app and R-package for characterizing proteins using molecular evolution and phylogeny

Molecular evolution and phylogeny can provide key insights into pathogenic protein families. Studying how these proteins evolve across bacterial lineages can help identify lineage-specific and pathogen-specific signatures and variants, and …

Incubator: Strategies to build a strong AsiaR community

R has been a very inclusive community and collective learning has always helped, with many users of R in Asian countries we can as well have a strongly knit community for R’s users. Inspired by the MENA (Middle East and North Africa) R, AfricaR, and …
