California Institute of Technology, January 27-29, 2013

Advisors list

Questions to address the Advisory Board

  • How can we best handle the multiple nematode genomes, display the data and provide analytical tools to our users?
  • How can we handle natural variation in C. elegans and other species?
  • How can we display and analyze transcriptional regulatory networks?
  • How can we best capture and display biological pathways?
  • How can we best capture community annotation or help from the community?
  • How do we make WormBase accessible and useful to human geneticists?
  • How should we prioritize RNAi versus other gene function curation?
  • How important are daily/weekly updates? How best to implement?
  • How should we make use of microarray/RNA-seq data?
