Bioinformatic insights into the diversity and evolution of bacterial toxins
(University of Waterloo, 2020-01-24)Bacterial toxins are a broad category of molecules ranging from small organic compounds and peptides to large multi-domain or multi-meric enzymes. Several important diseases are caused primarily by bacterial toxins including ... -
Community-partnered research on subsistence char fisheries near Kugluktuk, Nunavut: novel insights from traditional knowledge and western science
(University of Waterloo, 2023-09-26)Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) and Dolly Varden (S. malma) are the two most closely related species in the genus Salvelinus. Both species show substantial intraspecific variation in ecology, life history, morphology, and ... -
Explorations in Pairwise Measures of Dependence and Pooled Significance
(University of Waterloo, 2024-01-22)In the exploration of data sets with many variables, the search for interesting pairs is often the first step of analysis. This search builds a road map of the entirety of data before looking at its details, and can provide ... -
Inference Methods for Noisy Correlated Responses with Measurement Error
(University of Waterloo, 2020-09-25)Studying complex relationships between correlated responses and the associated covariates has attracted much research interest. Numerous approaches have been developed to model correlated responses. However, most available ... -
Micromeda: a genome property prediction pipeline and web visualization tool
(University of Waterloo, 2020-05-07)Understanding the distribution of biochemical pathways across microorganisms is critical to understanding these organism's evolution, ecology, and industrial applicability. Advances in genome sequencing and pathway databases ... -
The Proximon: Representation, Evaluation, and Applications of Metagenomic Functional Interactions
(University of Waterloo, 2017-09-19)The effective use of metagenomic functional interactions represents a key prospect for a variety of applications in the field of functional metagenomics. By definition, metagenomic operons represent such interactions but ...
