Hi every body. I had a question I would be gald if anyone help me.
I know that bioinformatics is speeding up stem cells projects. How this interdiciplinary field can help EC projects?what is the realationship between them?

The Ensembl Weblog provides news, views and announcements about the Ensembl Genome Browser. The blog has been going for a few years now, but I’ve only just become aware of it thanks to a recent Ensembl Genome Browser Tutorial by Bert Overduin. Catching up on posts from Ensemblians this year, Ewan Birney wrote a piece about The Gene Love-in last week and Paul Flicek briefly described the 1000 Genomes project back in January. The Ensembl Weblog is fairly low traffic, so if you don’t already read it, it’s worth considering subscribing to the feed.

And it’s good to see more scientists using blogs to communicate. Long may this trend continue!

There are a few remaining places left on the Building Scientific Workflows for Bioinformatics and Systems biology using Taverna course held in Manchester, UK on 15th April 2008. Attendance at the workshop is free, but participants will have to cover their own travel costs. Due to the hands-on nature of the workshop, numbers are limited to 30, so there is a ‘first-come, first-serve’ policy on bookings. Book now to avoid disappointment!

Not long ago I thought that conference travel was a perk of the trade, and helped compensate for the academic salary and lack of six-figure bonuses. This was despite the fact that I have been a leftie/green for as long as I can remember. Denial works in mysterious ways. Now I have read Six degrees by Mark Lynas and see airport expansion potentially going crazy in London - and I think maybe all this conference travel can be reduced.
