====Gordon Life Science Institute====
The Gordon Life Science Institute was established in 2003 at San Diego of California, USA. Its founder is Professor Dr. Kuo-Chen Chou. Its mission is to develop and apply new mathematical tools and physical concepts for understanding biological phenomena. For more detailed about the growth process of Gordon Life Science Institute as well as its novel philosophy, see the article at

The Gordon Life Science Institute is a newly emerging academic organization in the Age of Information and Internet.
Founded by [[Kuo-Chen Chou]] at San Diego of California, right after he was retired from [[Pfizer]] in 2003. Its mission is to develop and apply new mathematical tools and physical concepts for understanding biological phenomena.
The Institute's name reflects an interesting historical story. After the [[Cultural Revolution]] and [[China]] starting to open her door, the founder was invited by Professor [[:sv:Sture Forsén|Sture Forsén]],
the then Chairman of [[Nobel Prize Committee]], to work in Chemical Center of [[Lund University]] as a Visiting Professor. To make Swedish people easier to pronounce his name, he used "Gordon" as his name in Sweden. About a quarter of century later, the same name was used for the Institute, meaning that [[Reform and Opening]] (改革开放) and [[Free]] [[Communication]] (自由交换信息) can stimulate a lot of great creativities.
The Institute has no physical boundaries. Its members do not have to work in a same building or campus. Distributed over different countries of the world, they shall freely collaborate, exchange ideas, and share information and findings via a variety of modern communication methods. This versatile system allows the members to focus completely on science without having to cope with troubles in obtaining visas and in paying for relocation expenses, among many others.
The Gordon Life Science Institute is a non-profit organization. It is a gift to science and human beings. Its founding principle is to pursue the excellence in science: any one who has proved his/her creativity in science can become a member regardless of his/her age, occupation, and nationality. Accordingly, the Institute has provided an ideal society or organization for those scientists who are really dedicated themselves to science and loving science more than anything else. In the friendly door-opened Institute, these scientists can maximize their time and energy to engage in their scientific creativity.
Members of the Institute believe science would be more truthful and wonderful if scientists do not have to spend a lot of time on funding application. We also note that great scientific findings and creations in history were often made by those who were least supported or funded but driven by interesting imagination and curiosity.
Up to March 2019, the Institute has 26 members. Among them 5 have been selected by Thompson Reuter and Clarivate Analytics as of "Highly Cited Researcher": (1) Kuo-Chen Chou for continuously 5 years (2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018), (2) Hong-Bin Shen (2014 and 2015), (3) Wei Chen (2018), (4) Hao Lin (2018), and (5) Xoan Xiao (2018).
Listed below are just some represented works generated by the Gordon Life Science Institute. (1) [[Chou's distorted key theory for peptide drugs]] and its application<ref name="Du01"></ref>.
(2) Predicting various attributes in multi-label systems
<ref name="KC01"></ref>
<ref name="KC02"></ref>
<ref name="KC03"></ref>
<ref name="KC04"></ref>
(3) Introducing the concept of [[pseudo amino acid composition]] (PseAAC) for proteome analysis.
(4) Extending PseAAC to PseKNC (pseudo K-tuple nucleotide composition) for genome analysis
<ref name="KC05"></ref>.
(5) Developing many publicly accessible [[web-servers]]
<ref name="KC08"></ref>
and [[bioinformatics]] tools that have led [[medicinal chemistry]] undergoing an unprecedented revolution
<ref name="KC06"></ref>
<ref name="KC07"></ref>.
(6) Proposing the 5-step rule,<ref name="pmid21168420"/> named by many scientists as "Chou's 5-step rule",<ref name="pmid30768975"/><ref name="pmid30593778"/><ref name="pmid30822398"/><ref name="pmid30779939"/><ref name="pmid30880183"/> that has been widely used for [[proteome]] and [[genome]] analyses as well as predicting [[posttranslational modification]] (PTM) sites in [[protein]], [[RNA]], and [[DNA]] sequences.
The current liaison site of Gordon Life Science Institute is in Boston of Massachusetts, USA; gls@gordonlifescience.org.
