Exploring Free Open Source Software

-Currently working on Free Open-Source Software: NetBeans 7.1.1, Freemat, PSPP and jHepWork.. It definitely isn't a walk in the park. Hope to be able to contribute to the FOSS Community, particularly in Data Analytics and Visualization. Hope to make strides slowly but surely. But one notices that that there is a certain degree of specialization within different branches of Medical institutions, each one developing its own in-house (home-brewed) apps, or extensions and modules for existing progs. If only developers could work on common themes, and of course, collaborate towards a vibrant approach to the FOSS ecosystem! Bioinformatics is here to stay and grow exponentially. There is a greater1challenge in the area of the mobile revolution. Can one run an fMRI on a tablet PC or smartphone? Maybe not now, but I see the eventual integration of all platforms. And aside from that, keeping it economical. :) Hope to hear from readers of this blog, which is a work in progress

Featured Molecule

Stabilizing DNA Single Strands : DNA is typically found in the familiar double helix, with two complementary strands interacting through base pairing. However, during many genetic processes such as transcription, repair, and recombination, the helix is unwound and the two strands are exposed. This can be a problem. Single strands have a strong tendency to fold up into local double-helical structures such as hairpins, which can inhibit these processes. PSI researchers have determined the structure of a new single-stranded DNA-binding domain, revealing a surprising connection between the kingdoms of life.

Health IT News Spot

Despite the almost-daily reports of medical-related data breaches — some of them affecting thousands of patients — there are many health-care organizations that still refuse to pony up the money to make sure the data in their care is encrypted.

The people leading these organizations often will say that encryption tools, technologies and services, while readily available and offered by several providers (Protected Trust included), are too costly, that the expense can’t be justified or that the risk of a data breach at their place is pretty low.
