Small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated knock-down is a widely used experimental approach to characterizing gene function. Although siRNAs are designed to guide the cleavage of perfectly complementary mRNA targets, acting similarly to microRNAs (miRNAs), siRNAs down-regulate the expression of hundreds of genes to which they have only partial complementarity. Prediction of these siRNA 'off-target...

As patrons and editors, I and Dr. Mirza had to work on few very vital issues. First and foremost concern was that it should not be looked upon an isolated Indo-Pak venture! Though in the first five years, 2/3rd of the contributions are from these two neighboring countries, the other 1/3rd valuable share comes from all parts of the globe (Table 1 and Fig. 1). We have an international reach now. ...

Our work is based on the premise that analysis of the connections exploited by a recommender algorithm can provide insight into the algorithm that could be useful to predict its performance in a fielded system. We use the jumping connections model defined by Mirza et al. [6], which describes the recommendation process in terms of graphs. Here we discuss our work that has come out of trying to u...
