As part of a recently-funded collaborative REU (generously supported by the CRA-W), my colleague Derek Applewhite and I are working with undergraduates to study machine learning methods to predict genes that regulate cell movement patterns in schizophrenia. The team will post their work on new a Reed College blog, The Pathway Not Taken, and I may re-post selected pieces here. The first post gives a general idea of the problem we will work on, and how biology and computer science are intertwined in the project.
