The Soybean Allele Catalog Tool: A Web-Based Interactive Tool for Gene Alleles Discovery
Presenter:Yen On Chan
Date:01-20-2022
Time:3:30PM-4:00PM
Location:Zoom
The advancement of sequencing technologies has made a plethora of whole genome sequenced (WGS) data publicly available. However, utilizing the raw WGS data will not generate promising research outcomes for agriculture. To solve this problem, the Soybean Allele Catalog Tool (https://soykb.org/SoybeanAlleleCatalogTool/search.php) has been developed to assist researchers in gaining insights into soybean genotypes associated with

An Evaluation of an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) Based System to Characterize and Correlate Physician Burnout and EMR Use
Presenter:Katie Wilkinson
Date:11-17-2021
Time:8:00AM-9:00AM
Location:2206 A&B Student Center
Burnout disproportionately affects healthcare workers and continues to rise, contributing to cost, quality, and patient safety risk in an already overburdened United States healthcare system. While the causes of burnout are complex, evidence suggests that Electronic Medical Record use (EMR) is one major contributor due to the increased clerical burden that decreases patient contact time and disrupts the provider clinical workflow. The challenge of improving the

Understanding Common Key Indicators of Successful and Unsuccessful Cancer Drug Trials Using Contrast Mining
Presenter:Shu-Kai Chang
Date:11-11-2021
Time:3:30pm-4:00pm
Location:Zoom
Clinical trials are essential in the process of new drug development. As clinical trials involve significant investments of time and money, it is crucial for trial designers to carefully investigate trial settings prior to designing the trial. Utilizing trial documents from ClinicalTrials.gov, we aim at understanding common characteristics of successful and unsuccessful cancer drug trials

Do viruses experience culture shock?
Presenter:Cynthia Tang
Date:11-04-2021
Time:4:00PM-4:30
Location:Zoom
Viruses have the potential to cause enormous health, social, and economic burdens. These burdens are demonstrated by influenza viruses, which cause seasonal epidemics, and SARS-CoV-2 viruses, which caused the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic resulting in over 4.55 million deaths. Virus research and vaccine strain selection often require viruses to be propagated in cell lines or embryonated chicken

A COVID-19 Geospatial Population Health Risk Assessment for Missouri
Presenter:Tim Haithcoat
Date:10-28-2021
Time:4:00pm-4:30pm
Location:Zoom
Aim: Design and analyze a multifactor spatial database to assess COVID-19 risk across individual, community, social, infrastructure and culture contexts at the county level to provide quantitative insight and statistical support for potential mitigation areas. Methods: COVID-19 studies require vast amounts of integrated data to create understanding. MU’s Geospatial Analytical Research Knowledgebase (GeoARK) is a
