Frey's team did not train their
system to
predict diseases, but instead to take measurements of contents within a cell (metrics such as the concentration of a specific protein) and draw conclusions about the
cellular system as a whole.
His research group focuses on big data network biology, exploring biological
systems by developing and deploying algorithms aimed to
predict cell behavior, in particular looking at
cellular signal processing and decision making.
Through systematic annotation of the resulting movies, we developed a phenotypic profiling
system, which shows high correlation with
cellular processes and biochemical pathways, thus enabling us to
predict new functions for previously uncharacterized genes.
