Why is the Virtual Institute of Statistical Genetics Important?
•A MapNet initiative…
•MapNet participants are the key end-users
•Your tax $ are paying for it!

1. Background… what is the VISG?
•‘Virtual Institute of Statistical Genetics’
•FRST funded @ $NZ 938 K per annum NERF NZS portfolio Viewed as important cross-sector
underpinning capability
![Page 6: VISG Session 2009 Phillip Wilcox, Rod Ball, Gail Timmerman-Vaughan, Benoit Auvray,Sammie Jia, Mik Black.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56649ea95503460f94bae040/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
1. Background cont’d
•5 year FRST-funded Oct 1 2008•Participants: Scion, ESR Ltd, Universities of Auckland and Otago, AgResearch, Plant and Food Research, ViaLactia Biosciences Ltd •End users = NZ gene mapping scientists in various sector-specific programmes
![Page 7: VISG Session 2009 Phillip Wilcox, Rod Ball, Gail Timmerman-Vaughan, Benoit Auvray,Sammie Jia, Mik Black.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56649ea95503460f94bae040/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Why?
• New genomics technologies = LARGE datasets generated VERY quickly - New analytical and data handling challenges
• Need valid statistical inference…- Computationally intensive Bayesian methods
• Underpinning NZ science capability with multi-sector applicability
- Diagnostic tools from gene mapping already in market place
![Page 8: VISG Session 2009 Phillip Wilcox, Rod Ball, Gail Timmerman-Vaughan, Benoit Auvray,Sammie Jia, Mik Black.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56649ea95503460f94bae040/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
How?
eResearch: Statisticians + end-user geneticists working together from multiple organisations across NZ in project teams…
- KAREN- Grid Computing - Shared data storage- Communication tools for virtual teams…
![Page 9: VISG Session 2009 Phillip Wilcox, Rod Ball, Gail Timmerman-Vaughan, Benoit Auvray,Sammie Jia, Mik Black.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56649ea95503460f94bae040/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
1. Background cont’d - FRST Contract…
The aim is to ‘establish NZ as a world leader in advanced statistical methods for gene mapping’ by 2014. This will be achieved by:
‘establishing a Virtual Institute of Statistical Genetics’ combining NZs top gene mapping statisticians with geneticists to develop advanced methods for experimental design and analysis using pan-NZ computational platforms (KAREN and BeSTGRID)’.
![Page 10: VISG Session 2009 Phillip Wilcox, Rod Ball, Gail Timmerman-Vaughan, Benoit Auvray,Sammie Jia, Mik Black.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56649ea95503460f94bae040/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
1. Background cont’d - FRST Contract…The key steps involve:
Developing analytical methods in large scale data analysis and experimental design, relevant for future gene mapping applications.
Testing the methods using NZ-specific datasets from sector oriented RFI and HRC-funded programmes.
Developing software for use in RFI, HRC and industry breeding programmes
The outcome will be based on: Development of new methods, globally recognised
through peer review and application in sector-specific programmes in NZ, building NZ's reputation in biological sciences and international competitiveness in biologically-based sectors.

4. Progress Reports: Some things for you to think about…
1. How should VISG interact with the wider MapNet?
2. How should VISG communicate it’s progress to the wider MapNet?
3. How should VISG obtain feedback from MapNet?
4. Format for future presentations?• As part of the annual MapNet workshop?• KAREN/Video conferencing on an as-needed basis?
![Page 22: VISG Session 2009 Phillip Wilcox, Rod Ball, Gail Timmerman-Vaughan, Benoit Auvray,Sammie Jia, Mik Black.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56649ea95503460f94bae040/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
