In area of life sciences, there are three big data challenges
presented by organizers of CAMDA conference (CAMDA stands for Critical
Assesment of Massive Data Analysis) - see web page: www.camda.info .
Deadline is in May 2014.

Basically, you are asked to download the data and do anything
meaningful with it. In other words, you need to ask the best question
that can be answered with the data provided.
