Comparative methods in R hackathon (2008)
Brian O'Meara, Michael Alfaro, Charles Bell, Benjamin Bolker, Marguerite Butler, Peter Cowan, ...
The R statistical analysis package has emerged as a popular platform for implementation of powerful comparative methods to understand the evolution of organismal traits and diversification. A...

Comparative genome hybridization (CGH) is a laboratory method to measure gains and losses of chromosomal regions in tumor cells. It is believed that DNA gains and losses in tumor cells do not occur...
Desper, Richard, Gascuel, Olivier
Due to its speed, the distance approach remains the best hope for building phylogenies on very large sets of taxa. Recently (R. Desper and O. Gascuel, J. Comp. Biol. 9:687–705, 2002), we introduced...

The Minimum Evolution (ME) approach to phylogeny estimation has been shown to be statistically consistent when it is used in conjunction with ordinary least-squares (OLS) fitting of a metric to a...
Richard Desper, Olivier Gascuel
This paper investigates the standard ordinary least-squares version [24] and the balanced version [20] of the minimum evolution principle. For the standard version, we provide a greedy construction...

Renal cell carcinoma is characterized by an accumulation of complex chromosomal alterations during tumor progression. Chromosome 3p deletions are known to occur early in the carcinogenesis, but the...
Tight Bounds on the Learnability of Evolution (1999)
Andris Ambainis, Richard Desper, Martin Farach-colton, Sampath Kannan
Evolution is often modeled as a stochastic process which modifies DNA. One of the most popular such processes are the Cavender-Farris (CF) trees, which are represented as edge weighted trees. The...
The Set-Maxima Problem: an Overview (1998)
Sorting problems have long been one of the foundations of theoretical computer science. Sorting problems attempt to learn properties of an unknown total order of a known set. We test the order by...

A significant proportion of familial breast cancers cannot be explained by mutations in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes. We applied a strategy to identify predisposition loci for breast cancer by using...
Desper, Richard, Difilippantonio, Michael J., Ried, Thomas, Schäffer, Alejandro A.
Aneuploidy, the gain or loss of large regions of the genome, is a common feature in cancer cells. Irregularities in chromosomal copy number caused by missegregations of chromosomes during mitosis can...

The outcome of patients with renal cell carcinoma is limited by the development of metastasis after nephrectomy. To evaluate the genetic basis underlying metastatic progression of human renal cell...
A newly discovered human α-globin gene
Goh, Sung-Ho, Lee, Y. Terry, Bhanu, Natarajan V., Cam, Margaret C., Desper, Richard, Martin, Brian M., ...
A previously undefined transcript with significant homology to the pseudo-α2 region of the α-globin locus on human chromosome 16 was detected as part of an effort to better define the...
