− | SPELL
| |
− | *Raymond and Wen worked on putting on Amazon cloud
| |
− | *SPELL running on Amazon cloud
| |
− | *What next?
| |
− | *Need to be careful about running a cloud instance
| |
− | *Elastic IP? No, not yet
| |
− | *What are the requirements for SPELL? Free instance is currently sufficient
| |
− | *Need more memory for the start-up process
| |
− | *Haven't yet figured out a way to do stress tests
| |
− | *SPELL does not have many users (~500 queries per month)
| |
− | *Free tier available for only 6 months and then gone
| |
− | *Need to determine what the build requirements are (needed for every build/release)
| |
− | *Only want one copy of it (so we aren't paying twice)
| |
− | *Single canonical AMI
| |
− | *First step, firgure out build requirements (need more memory during build?) and runtime requirements
| |
− | *Free instance 2GB memory (upgraded) for build, 600MB memory OK for runtime
| |
− | *What will it take to maintain one of these instances for a year?
| |
− | *Double up SPELL queries with the main WormBase instance on the cloud to consolidate?
| |
− | *How to more fully incorporate SPELL into WormBase?
| |
− | *Integrate SPELL into the new WormBase App? (branding, tracking access)
| |
− | *Running under Apache; Ruby-on-Rails
| |
− | *Could maintain cloud instance for now and see how it will function (and what it will cost) over the year
| |
− | *Better if elastic IP assigned (25 cents/day? Or free once attached to an instance?)
| |
− | *Can it run in a micro-instance? Yes
| |
− | *$175/year for cpu plus disk space and transfer
| |
− | *Switch credit cards (from Raymond's to Caltech)
| |
− | *Follow logs to assess likely costs later on

− | NAR Paper
| |
− | *Ranjana having Editing trouble
| |
− | *Karen will format tomorrow for the bibliography and so will be off Google Docs
| |
− | *Paper due at end of October
| |
− | *There is discussion of submitting other papers to other journals; Worm?
| |
− | *Want consistent presence in Worm? Ad space?
| |
− | *Journals: NAR, BMC (Bioinformatics etc.), Worm, Database
| |
− | *What content would be appropriate for each journal? Who is the target audience?
| |
− | *Ongoing short editorial (or something) in each issue of Worm? "Hints from WormBase"?

− | SVM transition
| |
− | *From Ruihua to Yuling
| |
− | *Ruihua will meet with Yuling next week to discuss
| |
− | *There likely will be issues during the transition
| |
− | *Should alert Hinxton/EBI and Wash U

− | Worm Paper?
| |
− | *Brainstorming topics/ideas
| |
− | *Topics:
| |
− | **Overview
| |
− | **New Website
| |
− | **Expression patterns (image curation and 3D graphics)
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | Picture Curation
| |
− | *Adrian back at OICR, fixed some picture displays
| |
− | *Transgenome
| |
− | *Working on import pipeline
| |
− | *Contacted Worm Atlas for GFP images
| |
− | *Automated permissions request
| |
− | **Contacted ZFIN, since they have been using images for years
| |
− | **Requested permission for each image, too much work
| |
− | **No luck with Wiley, Nature, Science, etc.
| |
− | **Maybe collaborate with ZFIN to have greater influence
| |
− | *Elsevier gave blanket permission for expression pattern images
| |
− | *Nature Publishing Group needs a list of each image that we request permission for
| |
− | *Eventually want images other than just expression patterns (e.g. phenotypes)
| |
− | *Obviously automated e-mails have less influence/pull
| |
− | *Need formal statement of permission from Genetics
| |
− | *Elsevier publisher suggested putting a WormBase logo next to article in Science Direct
| |
− | **A link can be made which would redirect users to the relevant WormBase paper page
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | Expression Cluster
| |
− | *Wen finished recuration of expression cluster papers
| |
− | *Still have papers IDed from Author First Pass with microarray data
| |
− | **Papers don't have microarray data but other expression cluster-related info
| |
− | **Authors aren't responding to e-mails
| |
− | **Detailed info does not have details for microarray curation. How to handle?

− | SVM Transition
| |
− | *Ruihua working on code for SVM
| |
− | *Yuling still planning to meet with Ruihua

− | WormMart
| |
− | *OICR back in charge
| |
− | *OICR doesn't have access to the server that WormBase is running on (caprica)
| |
− | *Paul has usernam/password for root access to server
| |
− | *OICR working with BioMart developers
| |
− | *New data loader that should improve function
| |
− | *Want to give access to BioMart to existing configuration
| |
− | *BioMart will implement new data loader and then hand back over to OICR for maintenance
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | Genetic Interaction Ontology
| |
− | *Almost arrived at concensus with BioGRID (Rose, Andrew)
| |
− | *Mike Tyers was happy with the development of the ontology
| |
− | *Once complete can be sent to Charlie Boone, Fritz Roth, etc. to review
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | Textpresso

− | *Textpresso for HIV and for Wnt signalling
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | Orcid (Library of Congress)
| |
− | *Give each person, website, etc. a unique ID via publications
| |
− | *Global scale
| |
− | *May be interested in WormBase IDs (proof of concept for Orcid)
| |
− | *Pre-populate their system with our data
| |
− | *Initial launch will be self registration -> how to catalog people automatically
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | GSA GO Linking
| |
− | *Going to go ahead with GO term linking for GSA paper abstracts
| |
− | *Arun needs to streamline the pipeline to accommodate
