The Monarch Initiative developed a program that utilizes ontologies to compare genetic diseases across species. This Clinic focuses on designing and implementing a faster algorithm via thresholding, a method of reducing the required calculations by only looking at data that meets a given level of significance, which naturally lends itself to parallel computation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Computer Science\/Mathematics, 2013-14 Liaison(s): Dr. Melissa Haendel, Dr. Chris Mungall, Dr. Nicole Washington &#8217;99 Advisor(s): Andrew [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[140,185],"tags":[297],"class_list":["post-12313","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-computer-science","category-mathematics","tag-lawrence-berkeley-national-laboratory"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12313","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12313"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12313\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12313"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12313"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12313"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
