I was writing to see if I had fwd’ you the list of previous YouTube videos made by Avi’s group representing IDG tools (see below) , but let you know about we’ve also posted a bunch from our IDG digital tools fest Nov 30th. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-8k9c6dRYowAMrI0L812G6TNmZTcBDWv .

https://youtu.be/a0tbojE9DEU In this e-IDG presentation, Anna Calinawan, a Software Engineer from the Wang Lab, describes a collaborative project between the Ma’ayan Lab and Pei Wang Lab at ISMMS where we apply kinase enrichment analysis to analyze phosphoproteomics data from the NCI CPTAC program. The web portal that Anna developed can be accessed at: https://pancan-kea3.cptac-data-view.org.

https://youtu.be/6gDzA2dfOrI In this e-IDG lecture Dr. Alexander Lachmann, an Assistant Professor from the Ma’ayan Lab at ISMMS, describes three projects: PrismExp, blitzGSEA, and bridgeGSEA. These are three related methods to predict gene function and incorporate such predictions within gene set enrichment analyses. Read more about PrismExp here: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.11.... The PrismExp Appyter can be accessed from here:https://appyters.maayanlab.cloud/#/Pr...

https://youtu.be/m2bVYhF7MHo In this e-IDG lecture, Eryk Kropiwnicki, a Data Scientist from the Ma’ayan Lab, presents DrugShot, a web-based application and an Appyter that converts PubMed searches into ranked lists of drugs and other small molecules based on literature co-mentions. DrugShot also makes predictions about additional relevant drugs based on drug-drug LINCS L1000 gene expression similarity. The DrugShot website can be accessed at: https://maayanlab.cloud/drugshot/.

Two RFC’s are now available for comment by the community until January 11th.
Considerations about future gene pages and gene-centric dashboard for CFDEVariant Information and Knowledge Exchange Principles RFC stands for “Requests for Comments”. These are proposals being made by members of the CFDE to suggest that the CFDE community as a whole adopt the suggested new best practice. Everyone in the community is invited to respond to these proposals by leaving comments, critiques, and support at the links above. Comments are open for one month at which point the documents will be reviewed. If there are no substantial objections to the RFC in that time, it will be adopted as a CFDE Best Practice. You can read more about our RFC process here.

The IDG Digital Tool Fest 2021 was a free virtual meeting with demonstrations of different IDG digital tools developed for analyzing, visualizing and interrogating target-centric and drug-centric information. The meeting took place on November 30th, 2021. You can view recordings on YouTube: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-8k9c6dRYowAMrI0L812G6TNmZTcBDWv

Working Group Updates

Gene Expression Data Exchange Working Group

This new working group is kicking off Monday, January 3rd at 11am PT / 2pm ET. This group will survey and evaluate existing resources and then recommend standards for metadata, file formats, and an API for the CFDE to facilitate storing, retrieving, and querying gene expression data. For more detail see the WG charter. Join our mailing list by sending a message to GeneExpressionDataExchange+subscribe@CFDEpublic.groups.io .

Gene Working Group

The next meeting for the Gene Working Group is scheduled for Wednesday, January 12th at 11am PST / 2pm EST. The Zoom link for the meeting can be found at the top of the rolling agenda. Please join our mailing list and Slack channel (gene-wg) for more details about working group activities.
