Old data, new interactions, improved predictions

In our recent publication in Bioinformatics, we analyzed an eleven years old gene expression data set by Van't Veer et al (2002) and identified gene clusters that have demonstrated interaction associated with relapse risk of breast cancer patients. These newly identified gene clusters allowed us to improve the CV accuracy of prognosis prediction from ~30% to 8%.

Moving to wiki ...

For easy updating, we have decided to move (finally) our entire group website to our wikischolar website. The wikischolar website is a service provided by Columbia's CCNMTL center and adopts a simple-to-follow wiki format. Hopefully, we can now have a most up-to-date group website as we have always hoped for.
