In diesem Vortrag wird die Perspektive einer digitalen Qualitätsinfrastruktur (QI) auf informatischer Seite vorgestellt. Eine zu entwickelnde QI-Cloud ist die Grundlage einer verteilten IT-Plattform über die digitalisierte Prozesse der QI abgewickelt, Daten sicher vorgehalten und ausgetauscht sowie digitale Zertifikate ausgestellt werden können.
Dazu werden Methoden wie die Distributed Ledger Technologie sowie Smart Standards beschrieben, die das Potential haben, essentielle technologische Bestandteile einer digital transformierten QI zu werden.
Applying data-driven AI systems makes it possible to extract patterns from given data, generate predictions and helps making decisions. Material research and testing holds a plethora of AI-based applications, for example, for the automatized search and synthesis of new materials, the detection of materials defects, or the prediction of process and materials parameters (inverse problems). However, AI algorithms can often only be as good as the training data from which the corresponding models are learned. Therefore, it is also indispensable to develop measures for the standardization and quality assurance of such data.
For this purpose, we develop and implement methods from transferring data from various sources into a homogeneous data repository with uniform data descriptions. Through the standardization and corresponding machine-readable interfaces, research data can be made usable and reusable for further data analyses. In addition to the technical implementation of integrative platforms, it is crucial that quality-assured research data management is recognized and implemented as an integral part of daily scientific work. Finally, we provide a vision of how the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing can benefit from data-driven AI systems. We discuss early applications and take a peek at future research.
Metaproteomics has substantially grown over the past years and supplements other omics approaches by bringing valuable functional information, enabling genotype- phenotype linkages and connections to metabolic outputs. Currently, a wide variety of metaproteomic workflows is available, yet their impact on the results remains to be thoroughly assessed.
Here, we carried out the first community-driven, multi-lab comparison in metaproteomics: the critical assessment of metaproteome investigation (CAMPI) study. Based on well-established workflows, we evaluated the influence of sample preparation, mass spectrometry acquisition, and bioinformatic analysis using two samples: a simplified, lab-assembled human intestinal model and a human fecal sample.
Although bioinformatic pipelines contributed to variability in peptide identification, wet-lab workflows were the most important source of differences between analyses. Overall, these peptide-level differences largely disappeared at the protein group level. Differences were observed between peptide- and protein-centric approaches for the predicted community composition but similar functional profiles were found across workflows.
The CAMPI findings demonstrate the robustness of current metaproteomics research and provide a perspective for future benchmarking studies.
Driven by recent technological advances and the need for improved viral diagnostic applications, mass spectrometry-based proteomics comes into play for detecting viral pathogens accurately and efficiently. However, the lack of specific algorithms and software tools presents a major bottleneck for analyzing data from host-virus samples. For example, accurate species- and strain-level classification of a priori unidentified organisms remains a very challenging task in the setting of large search databases. Another prominent issue is that many existing solutions suffer from the protein inference issue, aggravated because many homologous proteins are present across multiple species. One of the contributing factors is that existing bioinformatic algorithms have been developed mainly for single-species proteomics applications for model organisms or human samples. In addition, a statistically sound framework was lacking to accurately assign peptide identifications to viral taxa. In this presentation, an overview is given on current bioinformatics developments that aim to overcome the above-mentioned issues using algorithmic and statistical methods. The presented methods and software tools aim to provide tailored solutions for both discovery-driven and targeted proteomics for viral diagnostics and taxonomic sample profiling. Furthermore, an outlook is provided on how the bioinformatic developments might serve as a generic toolbox, which can be transferred to other research questions, such as metaproteomics for profiling microbiomes and identifying bacterial pathogens.
Die Bereitstellung von zuverlässigen Werkstoffdaten stand für die Werkstoffprüfung seit dem 19. Jahrhundert in zentraler Stelle. Mit der zunehmender Digitalisierung unserer Gesellschaft gewinnt das Datenmanagement insbesondere im Hinblick auf die Modellierungs- und Simulationsaktivitäten an Bedeutung.
In unserem Beitrag beschreiben wir die gegenwärtigen Aktivitäten in Deutschland – insbesondere die NFDI-MatWerk und die BMBF-Initiative MaterialDigital – sowie in Europa und Übersee. Abschließend heben wir die Auswirkungen auf die technische und akademische Aus- und Weiterbildung.
