Subject: Lisp Driven Genomics in Nucleic Acids Research

Our paper:

 M Jain, J Shrager, E Harris, R Holbrook, A Grossman, and O Vallon
(2007)
 EST assembly supported by a draft genome sequence: an analysis of
the
 Chlamydomonas reinhardtii transcriptome.

has just appeared in the journal Nucleic Acids Research (NAR).

The paper is freely available here:

  http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/gkm081v1?ijkey=bZd5KmPx1oIzV0I&keytype=ref

NAR is one of the principal sources for research in genomics and esp.
biocomputing.

In this work we report on a novel Lisp-driven cDNA (~gene) assembly
technique that combines both genomic (dna) and EST (rna) information
to vastly improve the reliability of gene identification (in cDNA
assembly). In this application, Lisp (specifically, ACL) served as
both the scripting language, and, more importantly, as the core
computing engine, running a rather intricate recursive clustering
algorithm. This algorithm is the central contribution of this work. It
is described in more detail in this paper:

  Jain, M, Holz, H, Shrager, J, Vallon, O, Hauser, C, Grossman, AR.

Damn! A top billing for Lisp (even tho "This algorithm is the central 
contribution of this work.") calls for a top post!

I can never tell when you're kidding...even when you add smilies!
... and you *still* don't look anything like your picture!
