<h2>Objectives</h2>
<div class="level2">

Biological processes in a cell often require intricate coordination between multiple genes and proteins. The goal of this project is to infer useful biological and clinical information from large networks of thousands of genes. We develop an integrative approach to analyze co-expression and DNA methylation patterns in a single model. The results will be useful in pinpointing the cause and mechanism of complex diseases such as cancer. Our findings can potentially open doors to new targets for novel treatment plans.

<h2>Software</h2>
<div class="level2">

Pigengene: This R package provides an efficient way to perform network analysis and to infer biological signatures from gene expression profiles. The signatures are independent from the underlying platform, e.g., it can infer the signatures using data from microarray and evaluate them in an independent RNA Seq dataset. It is approved by, and publicly available from, <a href="https://bioconductor.org/packages/Pigengene" class="urlextern" title="https://bioconductor.org/packages/Pigengene" rel="ugc nofollow">Bioconductor</a>.

iNETgrate: This R package is useful to integrate DNA methylation and gene expression data into a single network <a href="/doku.php?id=https:bitbucket.org_habilzare_genetwork_src_master" class="wikilink2" title="https:bitbucket.org_habilzare_genetwork_src_master" rel="nofollow" data-wiki-id="https:bitbucket.org_habilzare_genetwork_src_master">code]</a>. This approach leads to identification of more robust gene modules compared to conventional coexpression networks. The package will be publicly available after review and approval by Bioconductor.

From Hartemink group, DBN. Very good explanation and comparison of different scores and search strategies. "With large amounts of data, the BIC is a good approximation to the full posterior (BDe) score and is faster to compute; however, it is known to over-penalize with small amounts of data." "The BDe score works better than the BIC score in recovering genetic regulatory pathways."

No inference, BDe score, simulated annealing and greedy searches, handles thousands of variables, used for gene network inference.
