Looking for PhD students to help with a genomics conference in Hobart late Oct
by Jac Charlesworth 20 Mar '17

20 Mar '17

Hi all, I'm looking for 2 local PhD students with an interest in genomics to organise the student function as part of the Australasian Genomic Technologies Association conference that will be in Hobart Oct 29th to Nov 1st (http://agtaconference.org/) AGTA is an excellent interdisciplinary genomics conference. We have a great line up of international speakers, with nationals soon to be announced. The student function will have some budget for a venue and evening even planned by PhD students and ECRs for their peers. We've previously seen quiz nights, career mentoring sessions and 'science at the pub' type speaking/socialising events. The students would work with the AGTA17 organising committee in terms of organising the social event, but we're hoping they will lead it. We'll provide conference registration as a thank you. Of you know someone who might be a good pick for this role please let me know. It's good CV material and shouldn't be too onerous. Thanks in advance- Jac (convenor AGTA17) Dr Jac Charlesworth Senior Research Fellow - Computational Genomics Menzies Institute for Medical Research University of Tasmania p 6226 4607 | m 0424 709 440 | f 6226 7704 17 Liverpool St (Private Bag 23) Hobart TAS 7001 | www.menzies.utas.edu.au<http://www.menzies.utas.edu.au/> [cid:image001.png@01D2A185.368A20B0]<http://agtaconference.org/> University of Tasmania Electronic Communications Policy (December, 2014).

Opportunity to learn about genome annotation and bio-curation
by Michael Charleston 10 Mar '17

10 Mar '17

Dear all, Bioinformatics users and researchers in Tasmania have a great opportunity to welcome an expert in genome annotation and bio-curation in the form of Dr Monica (Moni) Munoz-Torres from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California. Dr Munoz-Torres’ home page: http://www.berkeleybop.org/people/monica-munoz-torres/ Google Scholar page: https://scholar.google.com.au/citations?hl=en&user=GaQVcBAAAAAJ&view_op=lis… and linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/monimunozto/ Dr Munoz-Torres is able to travel to Hobart to deliver two workshops on 10th/11th of July this year (a Monday and Tuesday) on Genome Annotation and Open Science Bio/curation. EMBL-ABR(whose Deputy Director, Vicky Schneider, is cc’d) is coordinating an Australian tour by Dr Munoz-Torres, which will cut costs considerably, but in order for us to afford to bring her here we will to raise some funds! Please can I get a very quick show of hands, of people who would with high probability (at least 80%) pay up to $100 for a two-day workshop? The more we can get, the lower will be the total cost. I estimate we need to raise around $1650 which means at least 16.5 people :) I need to know as soon as possible so we can grab this opportunity – do let me know if you’re seriously interested!
