Adam Yao's Biography


Adam Yao, Research Scientist, Academia Sinica

Bio-IT group of National Center for Genome Medicine (NCGM) consists of three major teams including Data Analysis Team (DAT), Data Management Team (DMT), and Technical Support and Computing Team (TSCT) to provide IT support for precision medicine in big data era. NCGM started next generation sequencing (NGS) in 2007 using Roche 454. In 2010, Illumina Hiseq 2000 was introduced to the center. Use of these sequencers resulted in enormous amounts of data reaching over hundreds of terabytes. In order to support the increasing demand, DAT together with TSCT had built a specific and efficient infrastructure dedicated to NGS data analysis. Our teams have succeeded in making fundamental NGS data analysis quick and easy by defining adequate analysis workflows, utilizing and optimizing high performance computing, and designing an intuitive graphic user interface.

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is becoming the main technology for molecular diagnosis in clinical laboratories. However, a single exome can result in approximately 10 Gigabytes of data and sequencing a single genome can result in approximately 200 Gigabytes. As a result, bioinformatics easily becomes the single largest bottleneck in the routine implementation of next generation sequencing in clinical practice. Diagpipe with optimized design and implementation enables rapid diagnosis of rare disease so that an adequate course of management and treatment can be applied within days if not hours and therefore reduces the medical cost and potentially saves lives.
