Transcript Slide

Workflow: understanding and representing complex biological
data TO analysis of that data TO discoveries made through that
analysis
Understand the scope
and complexity of the
data
Identify relationships
In the data
Classify the data
Understand the experiment and
the subsequent curation to
understand the errors
Recognize redundancy
In the data
Explore algorithms
that analyze the data

Make new biological
discoveries from the
data
