Their challenge is the sheer volume of information to be processed. Unstructured data from medical articles must be combined with structured data from genomic and proteomic databases as well as wet lab experiments.  \nISB used a graph database to combine these disparate data sources into a powerful tool for scientific discovery.  The database enables researchers to formulate a theory, quickly test it against all available data, and interactively refine the query. A combination of statistical techniques to gain an overview of known genomic and proteomic interactions to sophisticated pattern-based queries to test specific hypotheses were used.\nThis talk will describe the construction of the graph dataset, and best practices for multimodal analysis of the dataset as well as the process that lead to a major scientific discovery.
