ColiCoords: A Python package for the analysis of bacterial fluorescence microscopy data

Publishing date: 2019-06-04 Published on: PLOS ONE summary: Single-molecule fluorescence microscopy studies of bacteria provide unique insights into the mechanisms of cellular processes and protein machineries in ways that are unrivalled by any other technique.

Reproducible big data science: A case study in continuous FAIRness

Publishing date: 2019-05-23 Published on: PLOS ONE summary: In recent years, researchers have access to larger volumes of data. More and more hypotheses are now developed and tested against existing data rather than by generating new data.

IntensityCheck – The light measuring app for microscope performance checks and consistent fluorescence imaging

Publishing date: 2019-05-02 Published on: PLOS ONE summary: Quantitative fluorescence imaging is an essential tool in biomedical research. It requires consistent and repeatable conditions such as constant sample illumination. Even on a confocal microscope this can usually only be achieved by using an external laser power meter.

BioModelos: A collaborative online system to map species distributions

Publishing date: 2019-04-11 Published on: PLOS ONE summary: Information on species distribution is recognized as a crucial input for biodiversity conservation and management. To that end, considerable resources have been dedicated towards increasing the quantity and availability of species occurrence data, boosting their use in species distribution modeling and online platforms for their dissemination.

RMut: R package for a Boolean sensitivity analysis against various types of mutations

Publishing date: 2019-04-11 Published on: PLOS ONE summary: There have been many in silico studies based on a Boolean network model to investigate network sensitivity against gene or interaction mutations. However, there are no proper tools to examine the network sensitivity against many different types of mutations, including user-defined ones.

RUPEE: A fast and accurate purely geometric protein structure search

Publishing date: 2019-04-11 Published on: PLOS ONE summary: Given the close relationship between protein structure and function, protein structure searches have long played an established role in bioinformatics. Despite their maturity, existing protein structure searches either use simplifying assumptions or compromise between fast response times and quality of results.

CLEESE: An open-source audio-transformation toolbox for data-driven experiments in speech and music cognition
