Scaling up life sciences with grids and clouds - stories and recommendations

Description
Grid and cloud computing are now a fundamental element in all analyses and experiments in Life Sciences. In this 2 part workshop, a number of research case studies will focus on the practical applications that are underpinning their success and show how these are relevant for other areas of research within Life Sciences. A final discussion phase will aim to provide clear proposals for future EGI effort. Additionally, hands on demonstrations/training for accessing grid resources either selected from the case studies or from within the scope well known Life Sciences VOs will be provided to researchers, scientists and even software developers.

The BioVeL project is a virtual e-laboratory that supports research on biodiversity issues using large amounts of data from cross‐disciplinary sources. BioVeL offers the possibility to use computational workflows to process data, be that from one's own research and/or from existing sources. A researcher can build his own workflow by selecting and applying successive services (data processing)...

Neuroscience studies are increasingly based on large population databases. International‐scale data cohorts have been deployed to tackle societal challenges caused by some neurodegenerative studies such as Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. This talk will discuss the need to federate heterogeneous data stores distributed over different neuroscience centres and link this data with...

IG/TR repertoire analysis can offer biological and clinical information with important implications for understanding normal and pathologic immune conditions. BIND will delineate a methodology and make available tools that allow for detailed repertoire analysis based on NGS data. Additionally, BIND will set the basis for the detection of disease‐specific IG/TR molecular properties that may...
