Microbial genomics and Metagenomics workshop

For those interested in microbial genomics or metagenomics see the announcement here:

The U.S. Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (DOE JGI) is offering a five-day workshop on Microbial Genomics and Metagenomics, in Walnut Creek, California, January 7-11, 2008. The workshop includes two days of intensive seminars and three days of hands-on tutorials. The goal is to provide training in microbial genomic and metagenomic analysis and to demonstrate how the cutting-edge science and technology of DOE JGI can enhance your research. Participation is limited to 40 attendees (graduate students, postdocs, and faculty or staff scientists). To register for the workshop, submit your application online from the registration page: http://www.jgi.doe.gov/meetings/mgm/


Note the Workshop is FREE. Yes that is right. FREE.

Author: Jonathan Eisen

I am an evolutionary biologist and a Professor at U. C. Davis. (see my lab site here). My research focuses on the origin of novelty (how new processes and functions originate). To study this I focus on sequencing and analyzing genomes of organisms, especially microbes and using phylogenomic analysis

One thought on “Microbial genomics and Metagenomics workshop”

  1. Hmm. What kind of place is this Walnut Creek? I am going to the Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing, Jan 4-8, on Hawaii. Is anyone else of you bloggers are going?Is Craig Venter attending the Metagenomics workshop? 🙂 🙂
