Microarray Reading
Find and read a good paper on microarrays, preferably one showing a
combination of biological application and computational analysis.
Email me a link and/or citation to the paper you read, together with
a few sentences about it. E.g., highlight one or two things from it
that you found especially interesting or surprising, either about
the biology or computational approaches, critique it from either
perspective, and/or suggest a logical extension to the work that
would be a good next step.
You may pick a paper from anywhere, including the Chu, et al. paper
I talked about in class. The links on the
Homework 1
page may also be useful. Here are others; in particular, the
bibliography in 2 below is quite extensive, and 3 identifies some widely
cited papers (but hasn't been updated in a year). If you've never
used PubMed,
I'd recommend it. (In general, I don't recommend CiteSeer for his
course; it tends to run a little too far on the CS side of the
fence.)
- Chu S, DeRisi J, Eisen M, Mulholland J, Botstein D, Brown PO, Herskowitz I.
"The transcriptional program of sporulation in budding yeast."
Science. 1998 Oct 23;282(5389):699-705.

As I did last week, I'll post interesting additions.
Please Note:
To simplify the chore of editing your answers for the web, please
format your email as follows:
- authors, title
- URL, if possible
- citation: journal, date, pages
- your remarks
- clearly separate any remarks aimed just at Kasia me, so we can
easily omit them.
Thanks!
