The classification of diabetes and prediabetes by static glucose thresholds obscures the pathophysiological dysglycemia heterogeneity, primarily driven by insulin resistance (IR), beta-cell dysfunction, and incretin deficiency. This review…
Summary: Biospectrogam is an open-source software for the spectral analysis of DNA and protein sequences. The software can fetch (from NCBI server), import and manage biological data. One can analyze the data using Digital Signal Processing…
When simulating metabolite productions with genome-scale constraint-based metabolic models, gene deletion strategies are necessary to achieve growth-coupled production, which means cell growth and target metabolite production occur…
Microbes are essentially yet convolutedly linked with human lives on the earth. They critically interfere in different physiological processes and thus influence overall health status. Studying microbial species is used to be constrained to…

Imaging-derived phenotypes (IDPs) summarize multi-organ physiology but provide only static snapshots of diseases that evolve over time. In contrast, longitudinal electronic health records encode disease trajectories through temporal…
Accurate identification of protein-nucleotide binding sites is fundamental to deciphering molecular mechanisms and accelerating drug discovery. However, current computational methods often struggle with suboptimal performance due to…
We present a new method based on Functional Data Analysis (FDA) for detecting associations between one or more scalar covariates and a longitudinal response, while correcting for other variables. Our methods exploit the temporal structure…
Cells with the same genome can exist in different phenotypes. and can change between distinct phenotypes when subject to specific stimuli and microenvironments. Some examples include cell differentiation during development, reprogramming…
