Description: Do you have the right tools for performing Genome Wide Association Studies? Can you process a million SNPs across thousands of samples? Are you still conducting your literature searches using Google? Do you waste too much time reading irrelevant internal and external documents? Attend this complimentary webcast and learn how to combine literature mining and statistical genetics in a single, integrated environment.

See and hear how:

  • InforSense GenSense can be used for genome wide association studies.
  • New knowledge from publications can be easily included in your analyses using Linguamatics I2E.
  • Natural language processing can be used to provide the right biomedical context for your searches.
  • Information mined from publications can be processed, visualized and deployed by business users.
See these concepts demonstrated in an application that examines genetic variability associated with Parkinson's disease and then interprets these results by mining publications for information which may help explain the nature of the relationship between the genetic variation and the disease.

Who should attend:

  • Bioinformaticians
  • Librarians / Information Services
  • Text Mining Professionals in Pharma, Biotech & Academia
  • Heads or Directors of:
    • Statistical Genetics
    • Medical/Clinical Genetics,
    • Population Genetics
    • Biomarker discovery
    • Pharmacogenomics / Pharmacogenetics
    • Core Genotyping
    • Facility Translational Medicine
    • Integrated Healthcare
