Every day research scholars and clinicians around the world generate considerable amounts of biomedical data. The data is produced in multiple formats, including natural languages, medical/biological images, proteomic, and gene expression from various tissues and cell lines. It is impossible for any human being to...

The Second Annual Milwaukee Regional Research Forum on behalf of of the Clinical and Translational Science Institute of Southeast Wisconsin (CTSI) will take place October 24th 2011 at the Crown Plaza Hotel in Wauwatosa.  The CTSI organizations include: Medical College of Wisconsin, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee,...

Proteins come in numerous sizes and shapes. A protein's structure is important in understanding its function. In order to determine the structure, researchers can use a technique called X-ray crystallography. Fundamentally, X-ray crystallography is a way to take pictures of proteins, thereby providing researchers with...
