CONSULTING EXPERIENCES:

Provided consulting services and analysis to researchers in Stowers Institute for Medical Research.

1. Sue Jaspersen’s lab, Determination of differentially regulated genes between wild and mutant yeasts (R, Bioconductor and Perl programming)

• Found out significant differences in gene expression between samples.

• Determined up-regulated genes and down-regulated genes and their fold change.

• Followed up functional analysis of the genes.

2. Jennifer Gerton’s lab, Extracting and analyzing large-scale quantitative epistatic interaction data for S. pombe (R, Bioconductor and Perl programming)

• Normalized colony sizes to remove edge effect and plate-plate variation.

• Generated high-confidence interaction scores to determine synthetic sick, synthetic lethal or alleviating gene pairs.

• Conducted GO enrichment analysis for the above gene lists.

3. Paul Kulesa’s lab, 3 projects in R, Bioconductor Perl, and SAS programming

a) Compute Normalized Relative Quantities (NRQs) for 8 samples with 85 interest genes relative to control samples in sample maximization experimental setup

• Conducted quality assessment of samples by visualization overall correlation between different samples.

• Average Ct values for valid biological samples.

• Normalized relative quantity (RQ) values between interested samples and control sample for genes.

b) Development of analysis methodology of qPCR data in gene maximization experimental setup

• Extracted 90 genes’ Ct values from 18 samples (mixture of chicken tissues and human cell lines) in 68 plates, and removed bad biological replicates using quantity control.

• Calibrated and normalized relative quantity (CNRQ) of genes in samples.

• Conducted cluster analysis of genes and samples by using their expressions and produced heatmap.

c) Comparing CNRQ values of genes between two Fluidigm and ABI platforms

• Test the equality of CNRQ values of genes.

• Measured the strength of their association.

• Detected outliers and determined their relationship.

4. C. Ron Yu’s lab, Sparseness on wild and mutant mice under different odor concentration environment (SAS programming)

• Built a two-way ANOVA model among sparseness, type of mouse and odor concentration.

• Test whether there is overall different sparseness for the two groups of mice

• Compared sparseness of two mouse groups at the same concentration.

5. Laboratory Animal Services Facility (SAS programming)

a) Sanitation Analysis of 7 mice groups in cages

• Designed an experiment and decide how many cages needed for each group.

• Studied how the density of mouse affects the ammonia level in the cages overtime.

• Given the same density, researched the difference between female mice and male mice overtime.

b) Dynamic Cage Changing

• Utilized Pearson correlation to determine association coefficient among 17 variables.

• Selected variables and built model between them and ammonia level.

• Applied ANOVA method to compare variables’ mean between cage groups.

c) Histology Results with diagnosis

• Investigated relationship between histology scores with diagnosis levels.

d) Breeding Performance with exposure to ammonia level

• Studied whether mice breeder pairs with exposure to ammonia wean significant fewer pups.

6. Reptile & Aquatic Facility, Sample size and power calculations for lizards (SAS programming)

• Produced descriptive statistics of hatching length and hatching mass of lizards and cleaned data.

• Determined sample sizes needed in various half-widths.
