The goal of Dr. Stoeckert's work has been to help make sense of the enormous amount of biomedical data. To that end, he has been involved in projects that developed tools that enable researchers to mine and integrate data from a variety of different sources and types of experiments.
The first step in that process was the development of data warehouses that collect and store information in a useable fashion. Within the resource center, we have built databases that serve research communities interested in specific pathogens. For example, PlasmoDB, houses information on the parasites that cause malaria.
We also have been involved in the analysis of genomics datasets particularly in the areas of red blood cell development, pancreatic islet cells, and Plasmodium genomes.
