Background: Since 2015, the Complex Reviews Synthesis Unit (CRSU) has developed a suite of web-based applications (apps) that conduct complex evidence synthesis meta-analyses through point-and-click interfaces. This has been achieved in the R programming language by combining existing R packages that conduct meta-analysis with the shiny web-application package. The CRSU apps have evolved from two short-term student projects into a suite of eight apps that are used for more than 3,000 h per month.

Background: Online weight loss programs have ambiguous efficacy. There is a growing body of evidence that weight loss programs when combined with apps have better outcomes; however, many apps lack an evidence-based approach to dietary changes for weight loss and do not rely on a theoretical framework for behavior change.

Objective: This study aimed to describe the development and the preliminary usability and acceptability testing of a web app that uses behavior change techniques (BCTs) to support users of a comprehensive online weight loss program.

ScRNAbox: empowering single-cell RNA sequencing on high performance computing systems.

BMC Bioinformatics

October 2024

Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery, Montreal Neurological Institute-Hospital, McGill University, Montreal, QC, H3A 2B4, Canada.

Background: Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) offers powerful insights, but the surge in sample sizes demands more computational power than local workstations can provide. Consequently, high-performance computing (HPC) systems have become imperative. Existing web apps designed to analyze scRNAseq data lack scalability and integration capabilities, while analysis packages demand coding expertise, hindering accessibility.

Epidemiological modeling is a key lever for infectious disease control and prevention on farms. It makes it possible to understand the spread of pathogens, but also to compare intervention scenarios even in counterfactual situations. However, the actual capability of decision makers to use mechanistic models to support timely interventions is limited.
