Widening the Use of Electronic Health Record Data for Research
Electronic records have yet to be broadly implemented nationally but there are large national efforts underway to address this lag in technology adoption. Concurrently, leading adopters of health information technology are looking beyond their implementation investment towards the value that might be derived from the secondary applications of clinical data obtained during the course of healthcare. This symposium will illustrate the challenges, pitfalls and key informers of success in the secondary application of electronic healthcare data using examples from comparative effectiveness research, pharmacovigilance, public hea...

Improved Peptide Identification Sensitivity using Meta-Search, Grid-Computing and Machine-Learning with Application to Genome Annotation
We describe a variety of techniques designed to increase the sensitivity and scope of identified peptides so that this evidence is not lost, but is instead available for evaluation alongside other types of experimental and statistical evidence for genome annotation.
The PepArML meta-search engine demonstrates that multiple tandem mass spectrometry search engines, heterogeneous grid-computing, and unsupervised machine-learning result reconciliation can substantially improve the number of high-confidence peptide identifications from tandem mass spectra datasets. The inclusive peptide sequence database PepSeqDB makes searc...
