CCB Seminar Series

June 2023 Seminars

Speaker: Jonathan Foster, PhD, Chief Technical Officer, Glue solutions Inc

Topic: Glue Genes: Exploratory Data Analysis for Single Cell and Spatial Omics

Date: Monday, June 26, 2023

Time: 10:00 – 11:00 AM Eastern Time (United States and Canada)

Location: Countway Library, Lahey Room 518 (Harvard ID required)

Virtual: Zoom link

Abstract: Glue genes is a new open source tool bringing the power of the glue visualization library to analysis of single-cell and spatial omics data. The core features of glue genes are (1) flexible linking of diverse, multi-dimensional datasets, (2) automatic connections across multiple visualizations, and (3) easy extensibility and integration with other open source Python tools. I will talk about the philosophy and design of glue genes, and show examples of how it can be used to explore linked datasets in real time, showcasing the desktop application as well as the in-development “glupyter” project, which puts the power of glue inside Jupyter Lab. glue genes is developed in partnership with the Jackson Laboratory.

The Center of Computational Biomedicine (CCB) at Harvard Medical School hosts a weekly seminar with a focus on current developments and outstanding challenges in computational biomedicine. See below for seminar details and information on how to nominate speakers and request to join the mailing list.

Seminar Topics: Subject areas include single-cell, spatial, and multi-omics approaches, image analysis, knowledge representation and ontologies, and computational aspects underlying the analysis of large and hard-to-manage volumes of biomedical data. CCB invites HMS-affiliated researchers and external speakers to present their work on these topics with the goal of fostering exchange and stimulating discussions between researchers, experimentalists, computational biologists, data scientists, and software developers. We welcome suggestions for future speakers! Please submit these requests via email to Ludwig Geistlinger for review.

Attendees: HMS students, postdocs, research staff and faculty interested in getting up to speed with the current state of the art of obtaining and analyzing novel types of biomedical data. Reach out to Sunil Poudel to request to be added to the seminar mailing list. Please note, attendance is restricted to Harvard-affiliated trainees, staff and faculty.
