Genomics

35.5K
Genomics is the science of genomes: it is the study of all the genetic material of an organism. In humans, the genome consists of information carried in 23 pairs of chromosomes in the nucleus, as well as mitochondrial DNA. In genomics, both coding and non-coding DNA is sequenced and analyzed. Genomics allows a better understanding of all living things, their evolution, and their diversity. It has a myriad of uses: for example, to build phylogenetic trees, to improve productivity and...

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS

12.6K
Genome-wide association studies or GWAS are used to identify whether common SNPs are associated with certain diseases. Suppose specific SNPs are more frequently observed in individuals with a particular disease than those without the disease. In that case, those SNPs are said to be associated with the disease. Chi-square analysis is performed to check the probability of the allele likely to be associated with the disease.
GWAS does not require the identification of the target gene involved in...

Next-generation Sequencing

87.9K
The first human genome sequencing project cost $2.7 billion and was declared complete in 2003, after 15 years of international cooperation and collaboration between several research teams and funding agencies. Today, with the advent of next-generation sequencing technologies, the cost and time of sequencing a human genome have dropped over 100 fold.
Next-Generation Sequencing Methods
Although all next-generation methods use different technologies, they all share a set of standard features....

Organization of the Brain

3.7K
The brain is an integral component of the nervous system and serves as the center for processing sensory inputs, making decisions, and directing bodily actions. This complex organ is organized into three primary sections: the hindbrain, midbrain, and forebrain, each responsible for a range of vital functions.
Hindbrain
The hindbrain, located at the base of the brain, plays a vital role in regulating automatic processes that sustain life. It includes the medulla oblongata, which is essential for...

Human Genetics

2.0K
Human genetics provides a profound framework for understanding the interplay between genetic predispositions and human psychology. At the heart of this discipline lies the study of how genes influence physical traits, behaviors, and susceptibility to diseases. Each person carries a unique genetic code that subtly or significantly shapes their psychological and behavioral landscape.
The complex relationship between genetics and psychology is observable through common biological components such...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Big Data
  • Genomics

Background:

  • The BRAIN Initiative and European Human Brain Project aim to collect unprecedented amounts of neuroscience data.
  • These initiatives are compared to the Human Genome Project in scale and ambition.
  • Advancements in understanding brain-behavior interactions and neurological disorders rely on Big Data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the rationale for data sharing in neuroscience.
  • To explore the complexities and challenges of implementing open neuroscience.
  • To highlight tensions between data sharing and institutional/individual interests.

Main Methods:

  • Review of the "data driven" paradigm in neuroscience.
  • Examination of "open neuroscience" projects.
  • Analysis of data sharing models, drawing parallels with genomics.

Main Results:

  • Advocates highlight methodological, ethical, and economic advantages of data sharing.
  • Sociological and ethical challenges include public/private data interests, researcher motivation, and participant anonymity.
  • Genomics data sharing models offer insights but also reveal complexities.

Conclusions:

  • Adopting a culture of data sharing and open access is essential for the BRAIN Initiative and similar projects.
  • Addressing sociological and ethical challenges is critical for the success of "open neuroscience".
  • Foreseeable tensions must be navigated to realize the full potential of collaborative neuroscience research.
