2020 Meetings
February 6, 2020
Worcester Area Worm Meeting talk
- Confirmed for December 2020 or February 2021
Alaska software
- Code developed and maintained by Joseph, but not long term solution
- Raymond and Eduardo talked about taking it over
- Why have a web application vs. a command-line application?
- Wanted to make it easy, but also to capture meta data for WB
- Should/will find out from Joseph about how hard it is to maintain the software
- Maybe it could be taken over by Alliance, as RNA-Seq/Microarray meta data are getting harmonized
- Expression working group working with Brian Oliver to have GEO take in more structured meta data
- Array Express tried requiring more structured meta data, but authors stopped submitting
- May be possible to build a form that collects meta data while simultaneously submitting to GEO in parallel
