The workshops will be taught on Macintosh computers. However, the Macintosh interface is almost identical to that of PCs. The workshops will be taught by B. Sneath and J. VanEe. Please complete a separate registration form for each workshop. The registration deadline is 5 pm Friday February 20th for the Sequencher Workshops, and 5 pm Friday February 27th for the GeneQuest and Internet Resources Workshop.
Early registration is recommended since enrollment is limited to six participants at each workshop.
During the course of the workshop, participants will carry out a sequence alignment project using raw data recently generated at the automated sequencing facility, or using their own raw sequence data. This workshop will also cover biocomputing applications available on the internet, such as sequence records and abstract retrieval from the National Center of Biotechnology Information, and searching predicted proteins for similarity to known protein domains.
