#Planck data refine universe's ingredient list: dark energy: 68.3% (prev: 72.8). dark matter: 26.8% (22.7). ordinary matter: 4.9% (4.5).
A spectacular new map of the "oldest light" in the sky has just been released by the European Space Agency.
The map was assembled from 15 months' worth of data acquired by the 600m-euro (￡515m) Planck space telescope.プランク衛星の宇宙背景放射の精密観測によって、宇宙の年齢が、考えられていたよりも約5千万年古いものだとわかったそうです。従来のビッグバンモデルでは初期の38万年で物質と光の分離が行われたとされ、この結果は理論の骨組みとは矛盾しないけど、温度変動の早期分布の説明に明らかな違いが…
It details what is known as the cosmic microwave background, or CMB - a faint glow of microwave radiation that pervades all of space.
Its precise configuration, visible in the new Planck data, is suggestive of a cosmos that is slightly older than previously thought - one that came into existence 13.82 billion years ago.
This is an increase of about 50 million years on earlier calculations.

>> http://www.sciops.esa.int/index.php?project=planck&page=Planck_Legacy_Archive
As of March 21st 2013, the PLA provides public data products from the first 15.5 months of Planck operations. It notably includes full-sky intensity maps at all nine Planck frequencies, maps of foregrounds components at high resolution, and the Cosmic Microwave Background fluctuations at unprecedented angular resolution. Angular power spectra and cosmological parameter grids are also provided, as well as the Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources and the Planck Sunyaev-Zel’dovich clusters catalogue.今回の観測結果に関するパブリック・データも同時公開。

□ Gene-analysis firms reach for the cloud:
>> http://www.nature.com/news/gene-analysis-firms-reach-for-the-cloud-1.12634
Online bioinformatics companies rush to provide genomics platforms and software for hospitals.
The companies, many of them based in California’s Silicon Valley, have been tempted by a market in outsourced sequencing and analysis software that by 2016 could top $4 billion per year, according to BCC Research, a market-research company in Wellesley, Massachusetts (see ‘Genes in the marketplace’). “The sky’s the limit,” says Andreas Sundquist, chief executive of DNAnexus in Mountain View, California, which provides genetic-analysis software on its cloud-based platform and allows users to upload and run their own algorithms.

□ Computational models can predict response to HIV therapy without a genotype and may reduce treatment failure in different resource-limited settings
>> http://jac.oxfordjournals.org/content/early/2013/03/08/jac.dkt041.full
これすごいな。ジェノタイピング無しに薬剤応答を予測する計算モデル。TCEデータからウィルス負荷推定値を導くらしい。TCEsからランダムフォレスト法で薬剤応答を予測。in silico解析で治療失敗時の代替案をRLSsから識別。
Random forest models were trained to predict the probability of response to ART (?400 copies HIV RNA/mL) using the following data from 14?891 treatment change episodes (TCEs) after virological failure, from well-resourced countries: viral load and CD4 count prior to treatment change, treatment history, drugs in the new regimen, time to follow-up and follow-up viral load. Models were assessed by cross-validation during development, with an independent set of 800 cases from well-resourced countries, plus 231 cases from Southern Africa, 206 from India and 375 from Romania. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was the main outcome measure.

□ Forum: Current useful developments in the field integration of -Omics data
>> http://www.biostars.org/p/67514/
What are currently developments to watch in the field of data-integration of Omics (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, phenomics ) data?
Some time ago RDF and triplestores were the main development in the field and I guess they still are. Big data sets like Kegg and Uniprot are now available as RDF (Seehttp://linkeddata.org/) but I don't know how many people can and do integrate these data sources with their local produced data. . And you can't store your raw data in RDF, only your conlusions, leads , hypothesis etc.
In the Proteomics community a big development I guess is the increased reproducibilty of the datasets and standard data formats like mzML and mzIdent. But for the other Omics I don't know.
