Answer for What is the scope of Bioinformatics in India?

Published

on

In India, Bioinformatics has high hopes as it is still in nascent field. The growth of this field is also dependent on growth of Biotechnology. 
There are a lot of big bioinformatics companies in India that hire bioinformaticians. Some of them include Accelerys, Jubilant etc. 
Complete list can be found by clicking here.

in 2010-11, Indian bioinformatics market was valued at US$58 Million While it was expeccted to grow by 25% in 2015.
 
In a market that require a large number of trained professionals, Bioinformatics can be a good choice.

protein structure & folding prediction using remote homologs

Remote homologs are similar protein structures that share similar functions, but there is no easily detectable sequence similarity in them. A new study has revealed that the protein folding information can be exploited from remote homologous structures. A new tool is developed to recognize such proteins and predict their structure and folding pathway. (more…)

Online Dating Safety and How to Recognize Red Flags

Published

on

One of the key questions surrounding online dating is whether these platforms lead to long-term relationships. Some 53% of adults under 30 have ever used a dating site or app – including a quarter who have used one in the past year. This compares with 37% of those ages 30 to 49 who have ever tried online dating and smaller shares of those 50 to 64 (20%) and 65 and older (13%) who say the same.

  • “They are being tricked meeting up with people. And once they are getting there, they are actually taking money from them and things like that.”
  • Additionally, male profiles that had a biography received 69 matches while those without received only 16 matches .
  • There are also useful questionnaires that give you insight into your actually any traits and compatibility skills, which can help australia online dating game regardless of really hookup you end up using the most.
  • According to Pew’s survey, 44 percent of online daters say they are looking for a long-term partner, 40 percent are interested in casual dating, 24 percent want casual sex, and 22 percent are just interested in friendship.

Pluralities also believe that whether a couple met online or in person has little effect on the success of their relationship. There are some groups who are particularly wary of the idea of meeting someone through dating platforms.

Tip 2: Build a genuine connection

Dating experts reveal the common blunders singles make with their photos, bios and prompts. Here are the new rules around ending a relationship by Zoom or texts. Furthermore, when describing themselves, people will often present their best selves while leaving out flaws. Some users may even deceptively present inaccurate information on their profile merely to get someone interested in them. Of course, hobbies and sports are always a great way to mingle. Consider joining a sports club or take lessons for an activity you want to start doing. Some people recommend Meet Upas a fun way to find people nearby who are interested in the same activities, whether that’s skating or going to museums or concerts.

Once the quiz is completed, you fill out your profile with prompts, photos, and icons to indicate your hobbies and interest. Our tester says the profile took at least 20 minutes to complete, although not all users include the same level of detail on their profiles. Every Thursday, the app comes to life with people near you who also want to meet that day. In the time it takes to order a drink on one date, you’ll be matched with 3 users in your area that match your preferences. As sparks typically fly in just moments, these mini-dates save users time and energy–all from the comfort of your couch. We believe in quality over quantity, and that smart daily recommendations are better for busy people than an unlimited buffet of options. We let you set ultra-specific preferences and only suggest you a few Prospects a day that we think you will actually like.

A few of the best or cheapest competitors reaped significant gains while many former domestic champions or viable competitors lost out. These sites also generate significant levels of inequality, especially for men. One analyst found that“like inequality” for men on Tinderis higher than income inequality in the United States . Ananalyst at Hinge foundthat women’s inequality on that site was roughly equal to the average income inequality for the world’s countries (aGini coefficientof 0.376), similar to Western Europe.

Pure is a perfect match for those who value confidentiality, as profiles are removed every 24 hours. You can also send random pictures that will self-destruct a few seconds after your partner sees them. Even though Tinder claims to cater to all types of dating, everyone knows it’s best for one-night stands. Swipe right to meet people or left to remove them from your view. Priced at the higher $32 to $40 a month depending on age, all the Tinder Gold and Plus benefits are included at this tier.

How to obtain SMILES of ligands using PDB ligand IDs?

Fetching SMILE strings for a given number of SDF files of chemical compounds is not such a trivial task. We can quickly obtain them using RDKit or OpenBabel. But what if you don’t have SDF files of ligands in the first place? All you have is Ligand IDs from PDB. If they are a few then you can think of downloading SDF files manually but still, it seems time-consuming, especially when you have multiple compounds to work with. Therefore, we provide a Python script that will read all Ligand IDs and fetch their SDF files, and will finally convert them into SMILE strings. (more…)
