ECCB18

Star #geneticist Eleftheria Zeggini leaves Cambridge to join HMGU. Recruitment of #computationalgenetics professor Eleftheria Zeggini as director of a new Institute for Translational Genomics is part of HMGU new #digital health strategy @sangerinstitute bit.ly/2PTeMXO

And it’s a wrap! A big thank you to everyone involved in organising #eccb18 ! It was wonderful coming back home to Greece to attend such an insightful conference! 👏🏼 @eccb18

Perfect ending of a perfect geek week! #ECCB18 thank you for such a great conference!

Bonnie Berger: I am not trying to answer ethical questions, we are providing tools to solve biomedical problems #eccb18

Bonnie Berger: Secure (encrypted) DTI performs equally well or is superior to state of the art drug-target discovery algorithms (in plaintext) #eccb18

Bonnie Berger: Generalized beaver tuples solve the problem of scalability for GWAS data cryptography. Linear scaling with input. #eccb18

Bonnie Berger: Globalize genome data! Sharing of genomic data across borders will greatly enable discovery of biomedically important variants #eccb18

Bonnie Berger's: Leveraging techniques from modern cryptography to allow efficient sharing of biomedical data in private #eccb18

Bonnie Berger: Maintaining privacy of distributed biomedical data is one of the main challenges #eccb18

All great things come to an end. Bonnie Berger takes the central stage for the closing keynote on Biomedical Data Sharing with Privacy #eccb18

#ECCB18, it’s been a pleasure! Thank you for another great conference! Stop by our stand in the next hour to pick up the last of our goodies! #bioinformatics #bioinfojobs ebi.ac.uk

Francois Ancien from @ULBSciences on predicting the "deleteriousness" of mutations based on a number of features including protein structure #eccb18

Alex Warwick Vesztrocy from @ucl on prioritizing QTL-causing genes #eccb18

Q: Could the Antikythera mechanism have been constructed without knowing that that the earth turns around the sun. A: No #eccb18

@eccb18 @OxfordJournals Thanks to the #eccb18 organisers, area editors/co-editors, reviewers, authors of accepted papers (+ importantly to the ones of rejected papers i.e. my own students), OUP x supporting our community. All that is what makes the #Bioinformatics special issue possible. @jfkelso

Thank you #Athens for a nice #eccb18. @denbiOffice is on the way back home. See you next year in #Basel #eccb19
