Note: I know I could make the program in question a lot more space
efficient, and that's what I ended up doing. It works now. It's just
that it was originally written for yeast, where space efficiency is
obviously not a concern, and I would have liked to just try a one-off
calculation on the human genome without having to rewrite portions of it.
What kind of research do you do?
Bioinformatics. The program in question is basically looking at what
DNA sequence features are most predictive of gene expression. I found
some extreme weirdness in yeast, so I decided to see whether I could
find the same thing in a species as distantly related as humans.
