THE BIG DATA ERA
“Researchers need
to be obliged to
document
and
manage their data
with
as
much
professionalism as
they devote to their
experiments.”
Nature journal Issue of 4 2008
 Importance of data:
• Retrieval
• Integration
• Analysis
 An at least basic knowledge of bioinformatic
methods in unavoidable also for experimental
researchers
 Bioinformatics
from basic methods for managing biosequences to
systems biology models
NIH BIG DATA to Knowledge (BD2K)
With advances in technologies,
investigators are increasingly
generating and using large,
complex, and diverse datasets.
Consequently, the biomedical
research
enterprise
is
increasingly becoming dataintensive and data-driven.
However, the ability of researchers to locate, analyze, and use Big Data (and
more generally all biomedical and behavioral data) is often limited for reasons
related to access to relevant software and tools, expertise, and other factors.
D2K aims to develop the new approaches, standards, methods, tools, software,
and competencies that will enhance the use of biomedical Big Data by
supporting research, implementation, and training in data science and other

Opportunities and Challenges
 OPPORTUNITIES:
• estimate the odds of your
future children being born with
something like Down syndrome
• secure paternity test
• customized cancer-fighting
drugs
• personalized medicine
Opportunities and Challenges
 OPPORTUNITIES:
• estimate the odds of your
future children being born with
a genetic disease
• secure paternity test
• customized cancer-fighting
drugs
• personalized medicine
 CHALLENGES:
• do you have something more
“private” than your DNA?
• consumers fear losing
insurance coverage if results
are shared, companies don’t
want to reveal proprietary
information about customized
treatments
“When your bank account or
credit card is compromised,
the situation is painful but
recoverable. You can close the
account, wipe the slate clean
and start over.
You cannot change or revoke
your DNA once it’s leaked,”
says Gene Tsudik – UCI –
GenoDroid project.
BioMol- Informatica e Bioinformatica Modulo di Informatica
Il modulo di Informatica si suddivide in lezioni di
teoria (16 ore) e lezioni pratiche in lab. (16 ore).
Il modulo si propone di fornire un’introduzione*
su:
- architettura degli elaboratori;
- circuiti logici;
- rappresentazione dell'informazione;
- sistemi operativi;
- reti di calcolatori;
- Data Base, sicurezza --- cenni
- programmazione (python).
Roberto Di Pietro
*il programma di dettaglio verrà discusso durante la prima lezione e messo on-line.
