Spring is flying along. We’ve been presenting some of our work at conferences and getting ready for a full summer of meetings and Divya preparing for her qualifying exam.
A few papers have come out or are now accepted. One I’ll highlight here is the publication of the Sordaria macrospora genome. This was a fun collaboration with [...]
Although I’m not going to be at PAG this year, I’ll be in San Diego for the BioPerl and part of the GMOD meeting on Wed [...]
Back from an excellent meeting in St Feliu du Guixols for the EMBO Comparative Genomics of Eukaryotic Microorganisms. Not a strictly fungi focused meeting, but lots of genome comparisons of yeasts and molds were presented. It will be held again in 2 years so mark your calendars as it is a great scientific exchange and a [...]
My presentation from BSA/MSA 2009 on early fungal evolution inferred from the chytrid genome is available here. The conference was great for the time I could be there and the interaction with mycologists and botanists at the meeting seemed to be really helpful (I caught a few botany talks) and catching up with new and old [...]
I will be at the Botany & Mycology conference (mainly to see the MSA members) and present a talk on Tuesday morning of the meeting. Hope to run into some old friends and meet new people at the meeting which will see Botanists and Mycologists mixing (oh my). I get to stop by Univ of Utah [...]
Live blogging JGI User meeting where the talks range from application of sequencing to problems in biofuels, comparative genomics and evolution, and the discussion of new sequencing technologies.
Here are some links from Day 1. We’ll probably have the rest of the days’ coverage in the Friend Feed Room.
