Summary of Ontology-based Annotations (SObA)
- Caltech (Raymond, Juancarlos, Chris) worked on new phenotype summary view
- Had a round of feedback and review
- Caltech would like to get the new view up and running for the website
- May need to work out Javascript issues (collisions) between main site and auxiliary scripts & dependencies
- Best to use existing libraries, JQuery; will probably only use simple custom-written Javascript
- Code generated at Caltech will be documented and archived on GitHub
- Can consider Cytoscape JS
SAB 2016
- February 4th-5th, 2016, Thursday & Friday
- Who are advisors; any suggestions send to Paul
- What feedback do we want from SAB this year?
- What new tools or features should we be working on? What do other sites have that we don't?
- We should bring data/feedback on community curation form usage
- Would be good to have an assessment/comparison of what all the MODs have and how they perform
Legacy site usage
- Bill Mohler asking about neuron images (from White thesis, Mind of a Worm/Worm Atlas)
- neurons colored red in images on legacy
- Raymond will work with Daniela to get anatomy-associated images displayed on the website
- Need to find the images
- These cartoons are a nice complement to Virtual Worm images
WS251
- Starts next week
- People should write entries for release notes and send to Hinxton
Gene association files (GAFs)
- GAFs currently need to be processed for downstream use/analysis in the WormBase Ontology Browser, etc.
- Raymond requesting the generation of separately formatted GAFs for different downstream applications
- One issue is qualitative vs. quantitative data (e.g. qualitative expression pattern annotations vs quantitative RNA-Seq analyses)
- Would be good to have distinct views of expression data, based on confidence and/or method
