Boston University Center for Network Systems Biology

RISE 2021 summer student Devansh, alongside Ahmed Yousseff, created an interactive web tool for computational protein network analysis using code in R. It compares networks and compute analyses like network overlap, differential connectivity of genes, and biological pathway enrichment! See his work below.

Getting up to full speed this summer! CNSB is pleased to welcome Ben Fitzsimmons, a new graduate student in the Biomedical Engineering program. Ben's research will focus on the discovery of exogenous ligands to human nuclear receptors!

Exciting new 'protocol primer' for state of the art proteomics now going live. Proud to co-author with an illustrious list of colleagues to bring this to fruition. Read here:

Subcellular proteomics This Primer discusses methods for characterizing the subcellular location and organization of cellular proteins. The authors outline methods for generating spatially resolved proteomics data and describe tools and considerations for data analysis, before discussing the applications of these methods....

Out now in Molecular Cell! The culmination of many long hours of work and many hands, our newest paper on SARS-CoV-2 research, "Actionable Cytopathogenic Host Responses of Human Alveolar Type 2 Cells to SARS-CoV-2" is now up online.

In early October members of the lab took advantage of the nice weather to spread out at a local park for a picnic and enjoy some non-Zoom time together.
