Conference--Genome Informatics

描述(由申请人提供)： 冷泉港基因组信息学实验室会议将集中讨论大规模的基因组注释和利用。这次会议的焦点是大规模基因组信息学。生物数据的爆炸性增长要求信息技术的规模和复杂性随之增加。这包括存储数据及其相关的数据模型，到设计有效的算法来发现这些数据集的非明显方面，到本体论来简明地描述生物信息，最后到支持管理、可视化和探索的软件系统。这次会议汇聚了这个不断增长的领域中的一些领先科学家，我们强烈鼓励来自其他大型信息处理学科的研究人员参加。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory conference on Genome Informatics will focus on large scale genome annotation and utilisation. The focus for this conference is large scale genome informatics. The explosion of biological data requires a concomitant increase in the scale and sophistication of information technology. This ranges from the storage of data and their associated data models, to the design of effective algorithms to uncover non-obvious aspects of these datasets, to ontologies to concisely describe biological information, and finally to software systems to support curation, visualisation, and exploration. The conference brings together some of the leading scientists in this growing field, and we strongly encourage researchers from other large scale information handling disciplines to attend.
