Thanks for the update valterc! Much appreciated and looking forward to new data sets!

I am curious as to how the project currently foresees its future regarding the approaching finalization of the gene expansion of the OneGenE FANTOM-1 set. At the moment we should be finishing up the current work on 31st of March 2023. On the website you do list other data sets currently on hold or on testing. Any chance you could elaborate on the future work envisioned for TN Grid? What about a possible timeline for the continuation of the project? What will happen with the finished work? Are you targeting a publication?

That's great! I'll look forward to reading it.

Any news?

Thanks for providing a timely feedback. Much appreciated!
Any way to keep us in the loop with the running of the experiments until September? Would love to hear about is being experimented with in the meantime. Maybe a short update by mid-July/August and a dedicated thread about the deployment of the AMD node in September.

How would the app_info.xml file look like for a Win10 machine? Tried various ways, but none worked for me. Any pointer highly appreciated. Thx

Hey valterc, hope that everything is going smoothly and you could slowly transition to the new compute nodes. Are they already up and running? Will they run on a special unique infrastructure (own work queue etc.) or will they also be visible on the server page due to a rising compute average?
Don't wanna be the annoying person here always pushing this request, but it's been almost another 3 weeks. Would highly appreciate any update!

I think they look great, but not gonna be relevant for me for a long time :)

That’s awesome! I am glad AMD finally granted access to the promised hardware. Hopefully that’ll boost the overall computational power, albeit temporarily :)
I would love to read a short follow up once the hardware is fully operational!
Cheers mate!

I don't want to make this an annoying habit to inquire on a monthly basis whether the promised hardware can yet be accessed or not, but I am starting to question AMD's commitment at this stage. Has the project lead already exerted a bit of pressure on this topic?
... Just curious.

Personally, this whole thing is
(1) either horribly planned and logistics are executed in the worst way imaginable OR
(2) I just cannot imagine the complexity going into that project but AMD ridiculoulsy oversold their promise to help by offering access to hardware resources temporarily OR
(3) it is starting to feel rightfully so just as some huge PR campaign
I hope it is one of the first two reasons that I mentioned, bc that means that eventually they WILL get access to the hardware. - Just at a later point in time ....
The story continues ....

Do you finally have access to the resources?

That's awesome. Thanks for making this adjustment. Have a great day!

All right! Thanks for getting back to us. That's definitely very unfortunate especially after all the buzz they intentionally created around this project (corporate press releases, own website) and their huge public announcement. If the resources aren't yet available, I guess it will also impact the other universities and institutions that were also promised access to the HPC resources. Hope they'll figure it out rather quickly :)

Still interested in how these resources are being used if at all... If you're allowed to publicly disclose this information, I would appreciate sharing them with us. It's been a while... Just saying

Hey valterc, I just saw this Reuters article (published 12/11) talking about 5 genes that are currently thought of as potential/partial cause for very severe courses of SARS-CoV-2. The article names the following genes: IFNAR2, TYK2, OAS1, DPP9 and CCR2.
Did we already expand those gene networks or can they skip the queue if not?
Five key genes linked to severe COVID-19 found, suggesting drug targets This research is also published in the journal Nature

I would be interested in any news surrounding this topic as well. Could the resources already be deployed and put to use? Or any plan how to best deploy them in the future to accelerate the work here? Thx

7 isoforms of the FURIN gene inside our FANTOM db, I just put them on our queue at high priorityIt's great that you as project lead always react to new circumstances rather swiftly! Much appreciated!

Thank you valterc! The work generator seems to be doing its job properly now again. The queue is continually rising almost back up to 4k tasks waiting to be sent out. That's great :)
