Thesis type RESEARCH, INNOVATIVE

Description In the past few years, the quest for recurrent motifs in the complex world of gene regulation achieved several interesting results and the regulatory role of non-coding RNAs (http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/MicroRNA) in intra- pathway regulation is under constant investigation. The goal of this thesis is the identification of regulatory motifs by complex data mining approaches on integrated data from several online repositories.
