The human genome is predicted to contain ~20,500 protein-coding genes. The encoded proteins are the key players in the body, but the functions and localizations of most proteins are still unknown. Antibody-based proteomics has great potential for exploration of the protein complement of the human genome, but there are antibodies only to a very limited set of proteins. The Human Proteome Resourc...

We will give an introduction to Rota-Baxter algebras which started with a probability study of Spitzer in 1950s and found interesting applications in the work of Connes and Kreimer on renormalization of QFT. We will discuss their basic properties, the constructions of the free objects and applications to multiple zeta values by renormalization method. Some other applications will be given in Ku...
