Seminar Series: Technology Trends 2003
Bioinformatics for proteomics: an integrated
platform for high-throughput research
Dr Marc Wilkins developed the concept of the proteome and coined
the term, and co-edited the first book on proteomics. A co-founder
of the company Proteome Systems, he has been responsible for the
establishment of a Bioinformatics business unit, the development of
a series of bioinformatic products, and the establishment of a
global strategic alliance with IBM. He serves on the Australian
Government's Expert Task Force for Bioinformatics.
In this presentation, Marc will outline some of the scientific
and information management challenges that are faced by proteomics
researchers, including areas such as analysis of mass spectra,
protein identification and characterisation, and data mining. A
series of solutions to these challenges will be outlined, including
a web-based integrative platform, BioinformatIQ, that serves to
co-ordinate the acquisition, storage, processing of massive amounts
of proteomic data, and serves as a platform for advanced data
analysis.
