Hackathon202305

Our first hackathon!

When:

Monday May 22 is the Neural Network workshop

Tuesday May 23 is the Hackathon

10am to when our food runs out.

The what:

For each gene, we want to be able to predict its decay rate, i.e. half-life or equivalent measures, using properties of genes.

Validation data:

We have half-life measurements from the following sources:

Features:

From Ensembl (v92):

  • Exonic lengths (UTR5 - CDS - UTR3)
  • GC content (need to get)

From the lab:

  • mmu 3T3: two samples (one MION, one PION)
  • hsa HeLa

To obtain:

  • Expression data
  • Slide parameters: Proportion of full-length reads, max poly(A)-tail length

Misc tips:

  • Open drinks need to be two spill distances away from any computer
