ACM Sixteenth Conference on Information and Knowledge Management (CIKM 2007)

http://www.fc.ul.pt/cikm2007/

Gene Ontology (GO) is a well defined and structured vocabulary to describe gene products of all kind of organisms on three levels: the function of the gene product, the biological process the gene product is involved in, and its localization. In the last years the knowledge of GO increased drastically together with its use to analyse bioinformatic data. Nowadays there exist a large numbers of tools exploiting the GO knowledge to gain more information from bioinformatic and biological data able to provide a “biological picture” of the data set.

Open doors day at CNB. Includes several (4) guided tours of the Centre, including a visit to EMBnet/CNB premises and scientific computer facilities.

We are pleased to send you the information regarding the upcoming COURSE
ON DESIGN & MANAGEMENT OF BIOINFORMATICS PROJECTS organised by IMIM with

The course aims at providing researchers with basic knowledge about
project management, with specific emphasis on proper design and
implementation of research projects. Additionally, due attention is
given to aspects related to the use of research results after the
project is finished, as a key topic for ensuring long-term financing and

A practical, intensive course on Molecular Evolution, Phylogenetics and Adaptation.

Pre-requisites: Basic Biochemistry and Seq Analysis are useful but not required.

Details, Timetable, Online Application forms at: MEPA07 . We welcome international attendees and we are eager to provide help in finding suitable accomodation.

Note: this course has previouly been voted as the "best contents and organization"  of our course series by MSc students.
