To build a close relationship with the genomics community, the FSU CGPM will hold a teaching-faculty style office hour for faculty and students who need brief assistance with their projects. The purpose of the office hour is to help graduate students and postdocs having trouble with a specific hurdle in code, faculties who have a question regarding the setup of a sequencing project, or students in bioinformatics course who need help understanding a particular analysis. The office hours are 10-12 AM on Wednesday, King Life Sciences Building, Rm 3058.
To better help the genomics community at Florida State University, the CGPM will provide several free services for the people who did high-throughput sequencing in the Translational Science Laboratory. Those services are free for everyone submitting sequencing to the FSU Department of Biological Science (MiSeq) and College of Medicine Sequencing platforms (Hi and NovaSeq).
Overview
The FSU CGPM server contains a total of 48 CPU cores and has 503GB of total memory. The server runs on Ubuntu OS 16.04.4 LTS.

The FSU Mathematics Department is having a very important lecture this Friday, September 7th, on BIOMATHEMATICS, The Past Through Tomorrow, and would like to invite your faculty and graduate students to attend. It is our Annual Brennan Lecture. Please post and send this flyer to your faculty and graduate students in your department. Refreshments are at 3:00 in 204B Love. The lecture is at 3:35 in 101 Love lecture hall. Please plan to attend.
Translational Science Laboratory (College of Medicine) and The Center for Genomics and Personalized Medicine will be holding Proteomics/Genomics joint interest group fall orientation meeting on Sept 10, 2018, at 11:15 AM Room #1303.
Andy Wang has joined us as the new scientific director. Dr. Wang obtained his Ph.D. from Texas A&M University in 2016 under the guidance of Dr. James Cai. His thesis work focuses on understanding the genetic basis of phenotypic variability or randomness in a broad range of biological systems such as the human population. From 2016-2018 he was a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center under the supervision of Dr. Traver Hart.
The Center for Genomics and Personalized Medicine is planning to hold a monthly seminar series beginning in the Spring of 2016. The seminar series will feature presentations related to genomics research given by researchers at FSU. Those interested in attending are encouraged to send days of the month and times that conflict with their schedules. Researchers engaged in genomics research and are interested in giving a presentation are encouraged to email Andy Wang.
