2nd Year Dphil Report

Venoms of coral snakes (Micrurus spp.): report on a multivalent antivenin for the Americas.

A multivalent coral snake antivenin was prepared in horses immunized with a mixture of venoms from the species Micrurus nigrocinctus, M. mipartitus, and M. frontalis, following immunization procedures previously reported (2). Plasma from the horses was fractionated with ammonium sulfate. The antivenin produced was then tested against venoms from ten species. The neutralization titers obtained i...

Report from the 2nd Workshop on Extremely Large Databases

The complexity and sophistication of large scale analytics in science and industry have advanced dramatically in recent years.

The 2 Extremely Large Databases (XLDB) workshop was...

Report on the 2nd Annual Infinium Humanmethylation450 Array Workshop

The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip - the successor to their hugely popular HumanMethylation27 BeadChip - is arguably the most prevalent platform for large-scale studies of DNA methylome analysis. After the success of last year's meeting (1) that discussed initial analysis strategies for this then-new platform, this year's meeting (held at Queen Mary, University of London) includ...
