It\u2019s going to get really stressed out, and you can see that because the fish is going to be breathing heavy. It\u2019s going to be swimming weird.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut there also are changes happening at the molecular level,\u201d she continued. \u201cChanges to how its genes are functioning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a recent three-day workshop at the SimCenter at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, Eaton and a host of other researchers from colleges and universities around the country studied data\u2014a whole lot of data.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop\u2014named the Southeastern Computational Biology School\u2014was organized and managed by Fernando Alda, assistant professor in the UTC Department of Biology, Geology and Environmental Science.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe organize this to learn ourselves and also bring people from other places so they can also learn,\u201d Alba said.<\/p>\n<p>Along with UTC students, researchers came from such schools as Loyola University in Chicago, the University of California Pomona, the University of Southern Florida and Louisiana State University. Most were graduate students.<\/p>\n<p>The supercomputers at the SimCenter helped crunch Eaton\u2019s data quickly and into a format that could be examined and educational. The goal was to determine how various environments may affect living creatures down to the gene level, perhaps even altering genes\u2014thus altering the creature overall.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe get this data and it comes back to us in a gigantic file. It\u2019s a gigantic jumble,\u201d Alda said. \u201cWe can use the computational resources at the SimCenter to help us organize this and basically figure out what\u2019s going on within an organism.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Studying fish genes might not seem to have any useful purpose in humans\u2019 day-to-day lives, but he said it could help research diseases and possible cures, using COVID as an example.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that when COVID infects a cell, it latches onto cellular proteins to reproduce. Examining cells at the genetic level can show how the cell fights back.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re going to see genes related to immune response,\u201d he said. \u201cWith this data, you can see that and see what are the genes that are playing a role and why these are important to fight back.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Researchers from across the country came to UTC for a workshop on genetics.<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-wrap\"><span><a class=\"more-link button text\" href=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2022\/08\/biology-data-brings-researchers-to-utc-simcenter\/\"><span>Continue Reading <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1105,"featured_media":44826,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_slider":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_featurette":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[123865,61,3,122313,64,48007,831],"tags":[122049,4948,122050],"class_list":{"0":"post-44859","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-biology-geology-and-environmental-science","8":"category-college-of-arts-sciences","9":"category-community","10":"category-experiential-learning","11":"category-news","12":"category-research-academics","13":"category-research-institute","14":"tag-fernando-alda","15":"tag-national-simcenter","16":"tag-southeastern-computational-biology-school","17":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
