Information and communications technology has become pervasive in many sectors, health included. Yet rather than streamlining health processes, it seems ICT only serves to add to the fragmentation with the creation of more information silos. Improperly implemented, ICT can introduce new risks and additional complexity to an already overworked sector. Emerging from the chaos is IT Governance, a that encourages the use of frameworks to guide stakeholders from the many confusing elements of a health information system.

Functional inference from protein-protein interaction networks: issues, quality checks, and possible solutions
This talk focuses functional inference of confirmed influenza A host factors whose role(s) in the infection are not clear. Here, we explore the impact of various parameters on network neighbourhood approaches in functional elucidation. In particular, we investigate the sources of degeneracy and false positives for solutions obtained from two integrative protein-protein interaction databases, STRING (http://string-db.org) and HIPPIE (http://cbdm-01.zdv.uni-mainz.de/~mschaefer/hippie/). Finally, we present edge- and vertex-annotation-based filtering solutions that restrict the graph to the most context-relevant network neighbourhoods.
Evidence of TAF1 dysfunction in peripheral models of X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism
The molecular dysfunction in X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism is not completely understood. Thus far, only noncoding alterations have been found in genetic analyses, located in or nearby the TATA-box binding protein-associated factor 1 (TAF1) gene.
