Science Researcher Update: Spotlight on Meetings, Conferences, and Events

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: Plant Genomes & Biotechnology: From Genes to Networks to be held on 11/29/17 - 12/2/17.

Free Pre-Meeting Half-day workshop on Bioinformatics Tools for Plant Genomics (Wednesday November 29th; 12-5pm): A half-day workshop will be sponsored by the Gramene (NSF #1127112) and CyVerse (NSF # 1265383) projects, and will cover public bioinformatics tools and resources in support of reference genome assemblies, automated prediction and community curation of gene annotations, and data submission of RNA-seq and other omics data to public repositories such as Track Hub. Lunch and coffee will be included. See more information and registration (limit 30) here. 

We are pleased to announce the tenth Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory meeting, Plant Genomes & Biotechnology, which will begin on the evening of Wednesday, November 29, 2017, and end after lunch on Saturday, December 2.
