Agenda
Alliance grant due in two months.
Cherry starting to retire, moving things to other people.
Should AWS be done out of Stanford or OICR, what is the difference in baseline costs + overhead. OICR does not have any discounts.
NIH STRIDES program (cloud computing best practices)- will give a small % discount
Todd proposes best to have everything together, rather than distributed with different infrastructure and silos of the different pieces
JBrowse search by coordinates
Raymond brings up difficulty in using coordinates to search and retrieve sequence within those coordinates - simple sequence
We used to have a BioDBGFF that allowed one to do that
PNuin - searching by coordinates in WormMine will only return the gene within the coordinates searched, not surrounding area
Scott proposes to write something that would return all the sequence of coordinate search, will check around to see if something already exists.
Raymond sees that WormMine has the capability, but returns a more detailed return based on annotations, PNuin with look into the tool and see if it can be set to return just sequence.
ParaSite BioMart may do this.
Paul - people want simple returns.
