Processing and Modeling of Biological Data
The DGKL Bioinformatics Working Group was founded at the end of 2003 and has been part of the Molecular Diagnostics Section since 2009. The primary objective is the IT-supported processing and interpretation of multivariate datasets from genomic and proteomic analytics. Furthermore, we investigate the extent to which bioinformatics methods are suitable for making the flood of routine laboratory medical findings more accessible.
Current work focuses are
- Laboratory data standardization, e.g., normalization and color coding
- Exploratory analysis of mass data, e.g., through cluster analysis
- Decision support through machine learning, e.g., automatic generation of decision trees
In addition to scientific work, we are also committed to continuing education and training in the field of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, particularly with our own workshops and course scripts, as well as at the annual meetings of the DGKL and the Molecular Diagnostics Section.
