IWM 2019 workshop
Topic/Speaker
- Start with gene page, that's when you have a single gene --Kimberly
- Then go on to data mining, for multiple genes--SimpleMine, WormMine, Parasite BioMart etc --Wen and Chris
- Then you can also visualize data with these tools-WoBR, SoBA, etc
- If you are interested in other species, find cross-species data at the Alliance --Ranjana
- Help us curate your data! End with community curation-New Author First pass form, community curation forms--Daniela
I think we have a good flow here, can keep thinking about this. Ranjana will shorten abstract and submit final list first week of April.
IWM 2019 swag ideas
- WormBase sticker
- Micropub folks have done stickers, in Paul's office, take a look
- Daniela will look into this, pricing and time
- Gary's ideas:
- Screen cleaning cloths with community curation theme on them, he will send around the picture
- Water bottles for the top community curators
- Fidget spinners, with the WB picture in the middle
- Gary will talk to Daniel to see if he can help with finding sellers/prices
We could do them all , a mixture, depending on the budget, need to ask Paul S. what the budget is for IWM swag

Textpresso Central vs Old Textpresso site
- A search for "SimpleMine" got 1 paper in TPC, 5 papers in the old site.
- A search for "alg-5" in TPC got 6 hits but the first two were redundant. The result missed pmid29927939 that was found by the old site.
- A search for allele "ev673" in TPC returns no results, but expected paper (PMID:24004945 / WBPaper00044133) returned in old site.
Protein-protein interactions up-to-date
- We should post an announcement to the community
- Could ask for feedback if any authors are aware of anything missing
