Discussion on the paper ‘Statistical contributions to bioinformatics: Design, modelling, structure learning and integration’ by Jeffrey S. Morris and Veerabhadran Baladandayuthapani

Bioinformatics is an important research area for statisticians. This discussion provides some additional topics to the paper, namely on statistical contributions to detect differential expressed genes, for protein structure prediction, and for the analysis of highly correlated features in Glycomics datasets.
