We are planning a Workshop, entitled "Identifying Features in Biological Sequences", to be held May 30 to June 19 at the Aspen Center for Physics (ACP). The participants will be from fields of math and statistics, computer science and molecular biology. All will be interested in problems of extracting bimlogical information from sequences, but with diverse enough approaches that many of them would not otherwise interact with each other. The total number of participants will be about 25, with a mixture of senior and junior researchers. The format of the Workshop is specifically designed to foster collaborations and other intensive interactions. Tutorials will be given by experts in particular fields to enlighten the others in the current ideas and methods in that field. There will also be talks by participants about their current research and the questions they are currently pursuing. Most importantly for this Workshop, there will be ample unscheduled time to foster individual and small group interactions. This will be facilitated by a small local area network of workstations, with access to the Internet available. This allows participants to obtain data and programs from their home (or other) institutions and to compare methods on similar data, and on various different data sets. It allows the hands-on development of modified approaches and even entirely new programs. Several examples exist from previous meetings where new methods have been explored directly due to the Workshop.

我们计划于5月30日至6月19日在白杨物理中心（ACP）举办一个题为“生物序列中的识别特征”的研讨会。 与会者将来自数学和统计学，计算机科学和分子生物学领域。 所有人都会对从序列中提取双非逻辑信息的问题感兴趣，但是有足够多的不同方法，其中许多方法不会相互作用。 参与者总数约为25人，包括高级和初级研究人员。 讲习班的形式是专门为促进合作和其他密集互动而设计的。 导师将由特定领域的专家给予启发，在该领域的当前思想和方法的他人。 参与者还将讨论他们当前的研究以及他们目前正在研究的问题。 对于本次研讨会最重要的是，将有充足的计划外时间来促进个人和小组的互动。 这将由一个小型的工作站局域网提供便利，并可进入因特网。 这使参与者能够从他们的家庭（或其他）机构获得数据和程序，并比较类似数据和各种不同数据集的方法。 它允许动手开发修改的方法，甚至是全新的程序。 在前几次会议上，有几个例子表明，讲习班直接促成了对新方法的探索。
