Dr. Gao obtained her Ph.D degree in Chemistry from institute of chemistry, Chinese Academy of Science. His Ph.D research focused on multiscale modeling of morphology and properties of polymeric materials, polymer processing and unveiling the process–properties relationships. (atomic to coarse...

Comprised of 6,426 sample runs, The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) proteomics validation study constitutes one of the largest targeted proteomics studies in the literature to date. Making quality control (QC) and donor sample data available to researchers aligns with...

A total of 172 children from the DAISY study with multiple plasma samples collected over time, with up to 23 years of follow-up, were characterized via proteomics analysis. Of the children there were 40 controls and 132 cases. All 132 cases had measurements across time relative to IA. Sampling was...

This dataset presents land surface parameters designed explicitly for global kilometer-scale Earth system modeling and has significant implications for enhancing our understanding of water, carbon, and energy cycles in the context of global change. Specifically, it includes four categories of...

Inclusion levels of alternative splicing (AS) events of five different varieties (i.e. skipped exon (SE), retained intron (RI), alternative 5’ splice site (A5SS), alternative 3’ splice site (A3SS), and mutually exclusive exons (MXE)) were measured in human blood samples from two separate cohorts of...

The Human Islet Research Network (HIRN) is a large consortia with many research projects focused on understanding how beta cells are lost in type 1 diabetics (T1D) with a goal of finding how to protect against or replace the loss of functional beta cells. The consortia has multiple branches of...

The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study is searching for factors influencing the development of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in children. Research has shown that there are certain genes that correlate to higher risk of developing T1D, but not all children with these genes...

The Diabetes Autoimmunity Study in the Young (DAISY) seeks to find environmental factors that can trigger the development of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in children. DAISY follows children with high-risk of developing T1D based on family history or genetic markers. Genes, diets, infections, and...

Machine learning is a core technology that is rapidly advancing within type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. Our Human Islet Research Network (HIRN) grant is studying early cellular response initiating β cell stress in T1D through the generation of heterogenous low- and high-throughput molecular...

Coastal landscapes are increasingly exposed to seawater due to sea level rise and extreme weather events. The biogeochemical responses of these vulnerable ecosystems are poorly understood, limiting our ability to predict how their role in global biogeochemical cycles will shift under future...

The year 2014 solution files are based on model calibration effort based on inputs and data from Year 2014 as described in Khangaonkar et al. 2018). It includes water surface elevation, currents, temperature and salinity at an hourly interval. These netcdf files with 24 hourly records include...

This year’s VAST Challenge focuses on visual analytics applications for both large scale situation analysis and cyber security. We have two mini-challenges to test your analytical skills and confound your visual analytics applications. In the first mini-challenge, (the imaginary) BankWorld's largest...

The VAST 2010 Challenge consisted of three mini-challenges (MC) and one Grand Challenge (GC). Each MC had a data set, instructions and a number of questions to be answered. The GC required participants to pull together information from all three data sets and write a debrief summarizing the...

The VAST 2009 Challenge scenario concerned a fictitious, cyber security event. An employee leaked important information from an embassy to a criminal organization. Participants were asked to discover the identity ofthe employee and the structure of the criminal organization. Participants were...

Mini Challenge 1: Wiki Editors The Paraiso movement is controversial and is having considerable social impact in a specific area of the world. We have extracted a segment of the Paraiso (the movement) Wikipedia edits page. Please note this is not the Paraiso Manifesto Wiki page which is part of the...
