Target Approach in The Stages of Liver Cirrhosis to Reverse Back in Good Condition

[WasifaRahman]

Project Lead: @WasifaRahman

Mentor: @Sonikatyagi

This is a prototype for curing liver disease in the stages of cirrhosis prognosis. It will specifically target in the enzymes which are responsible for elevating the risk for growing scar tissues in the liver. This will include bioinformatics pipeline to decrease the activation of the responsible enzymes and other related factors which are causing liver cirrhosis. Allover, the study will create such a prototype to be contributed by users having interest in this field and in future would be helpful for the community to use and develop more into this resource in the area of liver diseases.

Welcome to OLS-2! This issue will be used to track your project and progress during the program. Please use this checklist over the next few weeks as you start Open Life Science program 🎉.

---

Week 1 (31 August - 4 September 2020): Meet your mentor!

• Create an account on GitHub
• Check if you have access to the HackMD notes set up for your meetings with your mentor
• Prepare to meet your mentor(s) by completing a short homework provided in the HackMD notes
• Complete your own copy of the open leadership self-assessment and share it to your mentor
  If you're a group, each teammate should complete this assessment individually. This is here to help you set your own personal goals during the program. No need to share your results, but be ready to share your thoughts with your mentor.
• Make sure you know when and how you'll be meeting with your mentor.

Before Week 2 (7 - 11 September 2020): Cohort Call (Welcome to Open Life Science!)

• Create an issue on the OLS-2 GitHub repository for your OLS work and share the link to your mentor.

• My vision is to create a prototype for curing liver cirrhosis to serve the community with developed resource and be a MVP project in near future.

  This lesson from the Open Leadership Training Series (OLTS) might be helpful

• Leave a comment on this issue with your draft vision statement & be ready to share this on the call

• Check the Syllabus for notes and connection info for all the cohort calls.

Before Week 3 (14 - 18 September 2020): Meet your mentor!

• Look up two other projects and comment on their issues with feedback on their vision statement
• Complete this compare and contrast assignment about current and desired community interactions and value exchanges
• Complete your Open Canvas (instructions, canvas)
• Share a link to your Open Canvas in your GitHub issue
  https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1bEp0Ig7o8M1eCXXkHtkCdV_lkwYUjz24I9grWCxSTvc/edit?usp=sharing
• Start your Roadmap
• Comment on your issue with your draft Roadmap
• Suggest a cohort name at the bottom of the shared notes and vote on your favorite with a +1

Before Week 4 (21 - 25 September 2020): Cohort Call (Tooling and roadmapping for Open projects)

• Look up two other projects and comment on their issues with feedback on their open canvas.

Week 5 and later

• Create a GitHub repository for your project
• Add the link to your repository in your issue
• Use your canvas to start writing a README.md file, or landing page, for your project
• Link to your README in a comment on this issue
• Add an open license to your repository as a file called LICENSE.md
• Add a Code of Conduct to your repository as a file called CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md
• Invite new contributors to into your work!

This issue is here to help you keep track of work as you start Open Life Science program. Please refer to the OLS-2 Syllabus for more detailed weekly notes and assignments past week 4.

This is interesting , do you plan to include treatment modes or how will bioinformatics play a role

[WasifaRahman]

Thank you @sonibk ! I will find out the responsible enzymes and other factors causing scarring of tissue and will apply bioinformatics tool to reduce their elevation characteristic.
