2019 Meetings
February 7, 2019
Automation of curation
- For paper-by-paper curators (vs. datatype-by-datatype) it's difficult to parse papers into data types
- MGI and WB curate by datatype, so may have an easier time
- All MODS still need paper triage
IWM workshop
- Ranjana replied to Julie about a consolidated WormBase workshop; hasn't heard back
Site-specific outreach
- Wen has been invited to small RNA meeting in Mexico in April; may go if they offer to pay (waiting to hear back)
SObA
- Raymond and Juancarlos have worked out a way to display top-slicing of the ontology (trimming to higher level nodes)
- Needs a bit more clean up; will send around a URL when ready
February 21, 2019
SObA
- SObA GO graph, with top slicing function. You can try it here <http://wobr2.caltech.edu/~raymond/cgi-bin/soba_biggo.cgi> by entering the name of your favorite gene.
- specific genes, from simple to complex
Moving away from dependency on OBO format files
- Nico, an ontology developer with the Monarch group, has some suggestions for how we can move away from dependency on OBO files
- Planning to have a meeting on Monday (Feb 25) at 9am Pacific, 12pm Eastern, 5pm UK to discuss
