What You’re Doing Is Rather Desperate

Some more brief notes and hyperlinks from day 2 of the Bioinformatics Australia 2007 meeting.

I enjoyed this meeting. Nothing earth-shattering, but a lot of good talks with themes that interest me: genomics, data management, data integration, bringing bioinformatics to bench biologists. I’d definitely attend again. The organisers hope that this meeting will become a major event in the Australian bioinformatics calendar, reaching into the Asia-Pacific region and attracting more interest. Bioinformaticians who fancy a trip to Australia should keep an eye on the event and wangle themselves an invitation.

This week, I attended Bioinformatics Australia 2007 here in Brisbane. It’s a small meeting; about 100 participants, 2 plenary talks, 2 discussion forums and 22 symposium talks (including myself), plus a smattering of posters. As the name suggests it’s a local meeting, although there are a few participants from overseas.
