## ONTOLOGIES LINK HUMAN DISEASES TO ANIMAL MODELS

**ONTOLOGIES LINK HUMAN DISEASES TO ANIMAL MODELS**

**OVERVIEW**
- One of the major challenges facing biomedical researchers is to develop methods to link information obtained from studies of model organisms to the diagnosis and treatment of human diseases.
- Model organisms provide a rich and deep understanding of gene functions particularly from studies of expression patterns and mutant phenotypes.  Databases often store phenotypic information as text.  Text alone, however, limits the ability to organize and search for specific information.  It is much more preferable to use ontologies (structured vocabularies) because they define relationships between terms.  Several existing ontologies provide terms and relationships useful for annotating phenotypes, including the Gene Ontology (GO) that classifies gene products, various model organism and human anatomical ontologies, and the Phenotype and Trait Ontology (PATO) that provides vocabulary and syntax for describing phenotypes.
- We are using and further developing these resources and the syntax of PATO to design a set of orthogonal ontologies to describe mutant phenotypes and diseases. We are developing a curator interface and using it to annotate fruitfly and zebrafish mutant phenotypes and associated human diseases. Shared ontologies allow us to make links among different species.
- We propose that this general strategy can be extended to phenotypes in all species, thus providing a means to link human diseases to model organisms.

**Human holoprosencephaly can result from mutations in the *****SHH***** gene.  Allelelic differences produce more or less severe phenotypes ranging from narrowed eyes (hypotelorism), to cleft palate to cyclopia.  Mutations in the orthologous zebrafish gene produce very similar phenotypes.****  **

**Clinical signs:**
**  • ****hypotelorism**
**  • ****cleft palate**
**  • ****cyclopia**

**ANIMAL MODELS OF HUMAN DISEASE**

**BLAST**

**BLAST**

**ONTOLOGIES**

**Ontologies can be used to describe phenotypes, thus providing a means to link human diseases with animals models, when the genes are unknown.****  **

**1. We will use PATO to annotate mutations of fruitfly (*****Drosophila*****)***** *****and zebrafish*****,***** with priority to those in genes whose human ‘homologs’ are associated with disease. **
**2. We will use PATO to annotate the human homologs of annotated *****Drosophila *****and zebrafish genes.**
**3. We will develop ontologies necessary for these annotations and we will contribute both the ontologies and the annotations to the NCBO.**

## Basic research in solid-state chemistry leads to new formulations for drugs:The nature of pharmaceutical molecules means that they inherently contain functional groups that engage in molecular recognition events. These functional groups can be exploited in order to design binary crystalline compounds, co-crystals, a hitherto lightly studied class of compounds.   New formulations of the drug carbamazepine, CBZ, are illustrated on this and the following slide.

## Instability above 5MHz (N=2*10^14)

**1060-turn injection (2*10****14****)**

## Instability below 5MHz

**1.No SC, chromaticity=0 –unstable at very low freq. 1-6MHz**
**2.   SC, chr0maticity=0, fringe fields, - stable at low freq. Because of space charge longitudinal detuning, unstable for frequencies above 5MHz. **

## Effect of space charge

**ReZ is peaked around f=5MHz**
**Without space charge and zero chromaticity**** beam gets completely unstable at frequencies below 5MHz – no stabilizing mechanism**
**With space charge**** beam becomes more stable for these ****very low frequencies –**** ****stabilizing effect of space charge****. This is due to the longitudinal beam density (different b/a along the beam) which we can call “space-charge detuning”.**
**When low-frequency instability is stabilized by chromatic spread with Q’=-7 ****beam with space charge becomes more unstable at medium frequencies 5-10MHz**** – destabilizing effect of space-charge.**
**For frequencies above 10MHz effective Landau damping.**

## Instability for different b/a ratio

## Low frequencies (1-2MHz)

**b=11cm**

**b=20cm**

**b=6cm**

## Stable case vs the case without stabilization

-  **red – zero  chromaticity, no space-charge – no stabilization at low**
**            ****frequency – complete blow-up of beam by the end of accumulation**

## Beam profile for stable and “unstable cases”

**Blue – stable beam at the end of accumulation, 1060 turns injection**
**Green – zero chromaticity case, instability of some modes just started**
**              ****at the end of accumulation**

## Potential Precipitation Effects on Lapse Rate Change

- Roy W. Spencer
- The University of Alabama in Huntsville

## Variable A

- Variable B

- “True”
- relationship

- Regression
- Relationship
- (good corr.)

- --Traditional least squares addresses the relationship between a
*perfect (noiseless) variable* and a *noisy estimate of that variable*
- (all the error [or noise] is assumed to be in one variable only)
- .....but USUALLY...we deal with **two noisy variables**

- With TWO noisy
- variables, the regression
- slope will be UNDER-
- ESTIMATED
- in traditional least
- squares. Nonlinear
- iterative techniques
-  exist to compute
- regression relationships
- with error in both
- variables.
- OR..***average the data***
***to reduce the noise ***
***before regression.***

- _...__.but FIRST..a Note on Using Regression Relationships..._

- Regression
- Relationship
- (poor corr.)

## A reminder.....

- Even though radiation ***drives*** the system, the globally averaged tropospheric lapse rate is ***far from radiative balance***
- Instead,*** Moist convection****** ***largely determines the tropospheric lapse rate

## Precipitation & the Vertical Profile of Water Vapor

- Equilibrium water vapor profile impacts lapse rate
- While warming “will” lead to increased evaporation, the equilibrium vapor profile is related to the **balance** between source (evap.) ***and sink (precip.)***
***Feed backs related to precipitation processes are not well known***

## Some Potential Precipitation Effects on Equilibrium Vapor Profile, & thus Lapse Rate

- Land: Soil Moisture, Precipitation Processes
- Ocean: Precipitation Processes
- Autoconversion threshold
- How is precip initiated? T sensitivity?
- Detrainment level
- Downdrafts vs. large-scale subsidence
- Overall precipitation efficiency
- Warm clouds seem more efficient than cool clouds

## Summary

- Water vapor is the main greenhouse gas
- Precipitation processes strongly influence the equilibrium vapor profile
- Feedbacks on these precipitation processes are not well understood
- Lapse rate changes with warming could occur if there are microphysical feedbacks with warming

## 10th Annual George Mason University Conference on Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion Modeling 

***Debbie Payton and Mark Miller***
***Hazardous Materials Response Division***

**OFCM Special Session: ****Challenges of Urban Test Beds**

## Urban Test Beds: User Perspectives

- Who are the users?
- What questions do they need answered?
- How do we provide the information in a useful way?

- A “built it and they will come” approach probably won’t work for Test Beds.  To make the data usable by a broad audience, the first steps are to consider:

## Our Challenge

- “To take our forecasts and analyses to where people live and work.”

- ~ *a recently retired federal employee*

## Who are the users?

- Researchers
- Meteorologists/Forecasters
- Emergency Managers/Planners
- Emergency Responders (includes NOAA HAZMAT)

- We’ll focus on the last two “new” user groups who have different needs than the traditional user groups.

## What do they need?

- I need the data when I want it  Available 24/7
- I need the data in a format I can use  Graphical/GIS
- I need the data to be accurate  Real-time QA/QC
- I need to understand the data  Familiar terminology
- I may need help interpreting the data  Reachback (?)

*The system has to be operational.*

## Communicate Information Effectively

- Differences between Archived, Real-time, and Forecast data (that is, Past vs. Now vs. Later).
- Differences between actual data (point data) and predictions (model data).
- Is there a correlation or not? (That is, does the model accurately “predict” observed data?)
- If not, what is uncertainty?  Is it communicated to the users in a way that they can incorporate it into their decision making process?

- Response and Planning Users need to understand:

## Simple Questions, Complex Answers

- Where is the bad stuff going?
- How soon will it get there?
- Where can I send someone to monitor?
- Can I get real-time warnings about hazardous weather?

## Final Thoughts 

- If we want to win support in today’s budgetary environment we need to move beyond traditional uses of urban test beds.
- Urban test beds should be designed to provide operational information from the start.
- Make high quality information available to wider decision making audience in a form that can be used.

## Really Final Thoughts...

- “There are plenty of data available, from instruments erected within the canopy by environmental agencies and private companies. Unfortunately, their data are not likely to be of use in the context of conventional mesoscale models, but it is not these conventional models that are appropriate for the mission at hand.  Hence, we must learn how to extract relevant data from the large number of observations now available.”
