TITLE: "Detection of Symptoms of Depression Using Data From the iPhone and Apple Watch." ABSTRACT: Digital health data from consumer wearable devices and smartphones have the potential to improve our understanding of mental illness. However, in conditions like depression, there is not yet a consistent uniform measurement tool whose result can be reliably used as […]

12pm: Emily Maciejewski (Ernst), Grad Student, Computer Science TITLE:  “Cross-species and tissue imputation of species-level DNA methylation samples” ABSTRACT: DNA methylation data is highly informative to study a variety of aspects of mammalian biology. The availability of such data for many mammals at conserved sites was recently vastly enhanced by the development and large-scale application […]

W17: Machine Learning with Python

529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United States

This workshop will cover the basic principles involved in the applications mentioned above, such as pattern recognition, linear and non-linear regression and cluster analysis. The workshop will be oriented towards hands-on activities, starting from the basics of how to load and prepare biological datasets in a Python environment.

W21: Image Processing for Microscopy

529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United States

The analysis of imaging datasets is both exciting and challenging. New and increasingly powerful techniques try to maximize the information derived from multi-dimensional imaging datasets. Yet, every dataset can be a unique analysis challenge, and packages may not always work out-of-the-box. In this workshop, we will explore some popular computational tools to extract quantitative information […]
