Work at Zacharewski Laboratory
As a Bioinformatics Co-op student I work on the development
of dbzach, an Oracle database which stores toxicogenomic data
generated by the lab. Right now I am focusing on the Sample
Annotation Subsystem which holds information pertaining to the
biosources and their chemical treatments. This subsystem is
part of our implementation of the MIAME (minimum information
about a microarray experiment) standards. MIAME aims to standardize
the development of databases holding microarray information
in order to facilitate the sharing of data amongst other labs
and researchers. The Sample Annotation Subsystem will eventually
be interfaced with the Toxicology Subsystem to assist in better
modeling of the chemical effects on organisms and cell cultures.
