ADMISSION NO : 2015-09-014
The next session was deal by Rani J. R., lecturer of the department. She
deals with the plant pathogen interaction studies using Transcriptome data. She
introduced her work to us and certain tools regards to the next generation
sequencing. Transcriptome analysis: this can be saying that expression based
analysis. So many tools in bioinformatics are needed for the particular selection
and analysis procedures. Some of the examples include Open Reading
Frame(ORF) tool, Secretome and Localiser tool. Importance of quality check of
the particular data by any software by Fas Q method was effectively introduced
through this session. She introduced the tedious process involved in the sequence
analysis and its identification. All those seems to be very informative to us. The
lecture session came to an end by 1 pm and we are taken to have lunch at canteen
and we enjoyed the greenery of the campus by clicking certain photos.
The afternoon session was taken by Reshmi and Shahina. They are running
MDS ( Massive Data Analytics) company in which DNA sequences are analysed.
They also offers hands on training in DNA sequencing methods.They were more
interactive towards us and their lecture was on the topic “The genomics revolution:
an application perspective”. They introduced sequencing machines, sequencing
methods and their applications. The applications over metagenomics were
discussed more precisely since it is our area of interest. It helps in the environment
profiling of micro flora more effectively. Then they discussed about the case
studies; which help us in understanding the effective use of these studies.
Personalised medicine was one interesting area among these case studies.
Then we were directed to their library. It was simply different from other
library. The librarian explained the rules and regulations in the library. The library
is constructed in such a manner that it is tightly correlate with the environment. Its
appearance, peace environment made it simply different from others.
The last session was within the lab, were they explained the computer aided
drug designing. The lead optimization and of certain studied proteins were
demonstrated for us. They chose the vinblastin and like protein as the ligand. They
mainly involve in arrest of cell division. Whole docking procedures were explained
in the practical session.
We were also taken to various wet lab laboratories in the department. Its was
appreciable that they not only focus on research but in all activites that would
enrich the capabilities of a student there. The walls were all decorated with mind
maps, artistic thoughts, the research works of the students as photo frames and
many others. The whole department seems like an eco friendly nature built inside a
massive green university.
