SUMMARY:Dry Farm Tomato Field Day
DESCRIPTION:Climate change models predict increasingly hot and dry conditions\, raising concerns about impacts on agricultural production and food security. Answering this challenge is organic dry farming\, a sustainable practice that allows growers to produce crops under arid conditions with little irrigation. \nResearchers from UC Santa Cruz and the University of Oregon are studying the environmental conditions and plant traits that support successful dry-farmed tomato production on 10 different varieties. Join us for a Field Day focused on research that aims to help small-scale organic farmers adapt to our changing climate. \nRSVP

SUMMARY:Shen\, J. (STAT) - Bayesian Modeling and Uncertainty Quantification for Verbal Autopsy Data
DESCRIPTION:Verbal autopsy (VA) is a well developed tool to collect information describing deaths outside of hospitals by conducting surveys to the relatives and caregivers of the deceased person. It is routinely-implemented in low and middle income countries\, where it often lacks sufficient resources to conduct the autopsy. The main task is to estimate both individual level cause-of-death probabilities and population level cause-specific mortality fractions. In this document\, we present three projects dealing with challenges current VA modeling faces. In the first project\, we build a shared latent class model for verbal autopsy\, which allows causes to share common symptom patterns. A truncated Bayesian nonparametric prior allows the number of latent classes to adapt to data\, while retaining a computationally tractable representation. We provide a general framework for few-shot learning of the VA data\, where limited labels can be combined in analysis with a potentially much larger collection of unlabeled symptom profile. Two complementary factorizations are considered to account for different types of distribution shift between source and target. In the second project\, we develop a conformal prediction procedure for verbal autposy. For each death\, we generate a conformal prediction set from existing VA model outputs\, which guarantees a marginal coverage of true cause from a fequentist perspective. We also investigate conformal Bayesian procedures that more directly incorporate posterior uncertainty from Bayesian VA models. In the third project\, we consider situations where source and target do not share a common cause list. We propose methods using repulsive priors to identify deaths in the target domain whose symptom profiles are not adequately represented by the known causes in the source domain. \nEvent Host: Jibo Shen\, Ph.D. Student\, Statistical Science \nAdvisor: Zehang Richard Li \nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/94158273558?pwd=VZORHL8P5O9bfb5JpSMZAL1DOM44uC.1&jst=2 \nPasscode:  294401

SUMMARY:Nag\, S. (BMEB) - Personalized Diploid Genome Graphs for Accurate Somatic Variant Discovery
DESCRIPTION:Many somatic variant-calling pipelines begin by aligning tumor and matched-normal sequencing reads to a single linear reference genome\, such as GRCh38. Because every individual differs substantially from this reference\, this approach can introduce reference bias\, causing reads to map incorrectly or not at all and potentially leading to missed somatic variants or germline variants being misclassified as somatic. I propose replacing the generic reference with a personalized diploid genome graph constructed from a donor-specific assembly (DSA)\, which represents both inherited haplotypes of the individual. I will develop this framework by (1) generating haplotype-resolved\, telomere-to-telomere DSAs for cancer reference cell lines\, (2) developing haplotype-aware graph alignment and adapting DeepSomatic to call variants against personalized diploid genomes\, and (3) applying this approach across tissues from SMaHT donors to improve somatic mosaicism detection and characterize shared and tissue-specific mutations. \nEvent Host: Sagorika Nag\, Ph.D. Student\, Biomolecular Engineering & Bioinformatics  \nAdvisor: Benedict Paten \nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/99844148597?pwd=amp5Nhmj2UeodTADUdaJwZsKtscRMG.1 \nPasscode: 685655

SUMMARY:Kramer\, A. (BMEB) - Scalable phylo-pangenomics
DESCRIPTION:The COVID-19 pandemic generated genomic data at unprecedented scale\, with tens of millions of SARS-CoV-2 genomes deposited in public repositories and thousands of new sequences added each day. This dissertation develops methods for analyzing genomic datasets at this scale\, unified by the idea that encoding genomes according to their evolutionary relationships can make otherwise intractable computations practical. First\, I evaluate online phylogenetic inference\, in which new genomes are continuously added to an existing tree\, and compare parsimony-based methods with maximum-likelihood approaches under pandemic time constraints. For densely sampled SARS-CoV-2 genomes\, online inference with UShER and matOptimize produces trees comparable to established maximum-likelihood methods while requiring orders of magnitude less time and memory. I then develop tools that make phylogenies containing millions of genomes useful for downstream analysis and visualization. ShUShER enables privacy-preserving phylogenetic placement within a web browser\, allowing laboratories to analyze sensitive sequences without transmitting them to an external server. Treenome Browser co-visualizes the genomic variation of millions of samples alongside their phylogenetic relationships by operating directly on a compressed mutation-annotated tree. Finally\, I describe Panmap\, which uses Pangenome Mutation-Annotated Networks (PanMANs) to place\, align\, and genotype sequencing reads and to estimate haplotype abundances against reference collections containing up to millions of genomes. Panmap produces indexes hundreds of times smaller than graph-based alternatives\, improves genome reconstruction over single-reference workflows at low coverage\, and supports applications ranging from pathogen genome assembly to ancient environmental DNA analysis. Together\, these results show that evolutionary history can serve not only as an object of inference but as a scalable computational infrastructure for phylogenomic and pangenomic analyses as genomic datasets continue to grow. \nEvent Host: Alexander Kramer\, Ph.D. Candidate\, Biomolecular Engineering & Bioinformatics \nAdvisor: Russell Corbett-Detig \nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/91364025182?pwd=Tq95CuaBqrePatRjopy6uJ9bbjsrIH.1 \nPasscode: 318268
