BACK FROM AS-SIG, ISMB2005

A good meeting with interesting talks. I stayed in Detroit from June 22-25. There were some problems with the CGI settings on my blog but they were fixed. So I am able to update my blog again. I'll probably put up the PDF of my talk at AS-SIG in the next a few days.

Greg from nodalpoint has a few pictures here. More pictures to come? And what about your notes? :)

Steve Mount's thoughts on AS-SIG and ISMB. Also his thoughts on the term "croe", which stands for "coding region of an exon". I want to point out that such a definition needs to be related to specific transcripts, considering the possibility of RNA alternative splicing. That is to say, the same genomic segment can be coding in one transcript isoform but non-coding in another.

I think it's a good idea to use terms with specific, explicit meanings. I notice that some other people also used a similiar term, e.g. Nekrutenko et.al. where they used "coding parts of terminal exons".

I have notes from a few of the AS-SIG talks, mainly databases, as well as notes from the panel discussion (Human Transcriptome Project). Hopefully I'll get these up in the next few days, along with the rest of the photos.

I've put up the rest of the ISMB2005 photos here:

I'm working on my notes, the ones most relevant to this blog will be from the AS-SIG panel discussion.
