In 1976, when my children were 3 years old and 6 months old, Bechtel asked me to return to Alberta to work on Syncrude, a major project extracting oil from sand.
Both dataset-1 and dataset-2 are based on real-world projects extracted from [32].
While most offshore projects extract oil and gas via above-water platforms, the company placated environmentalists and trimmed costs by placing its platforms on the seabed, running pipes back to Melkøya and operating the wells remotely.
We downloaded the structural variation list from the 1000 Genomes Project pilot project and extracted the 18,932 structural variants that were validated in NA12878.
This work was partly funded by the Austrian Funding Agency in the funding programme e MISSION within the project "extrACT", Project Number 838688.
Erik von Elm initiated and designed the project, searched, extracted, and analysed the data, and is study guarantor.
A further consequence of this project was extracted from the qualitative data: a strengthening of participants' self-confidence.
RNA from the majority of taxa in the 1KP project were extracted with protocols outlined in Johnson et al. (2012).
First, we had to ensure that the sequence variants we obtained were truly in the mitochondrial and not in the nuclear genome (since the latter contains partial copies of the former [ 13]), and also that they were not derived from exogenous sources (DNA for this project was extracted from saliva).
Site project managers extracted data from the labour and delivery record, specifically, information about gestation, the nature of the delivery (e.g., use of forceps/vacuum extraction), integrity of the perineum, anesthesia, excessive bleeding, APGAR scores, and health care professionals present at the delivery.
