Gramene at PAG 2019 Conference

Submitted by Sushma_Naithani on Tue, 01/08/2019 - 14:33

The Gramene team looks forward to meeting plant researchers at the Plant and Animal Genome XXVII conference from 12th-16th January, 2019. You can meet Gramene folks at: 

             Poster # PE1168: Pankaj Jaiswal / Justin Preece (Gramene)

             Poster # PE0044:  Sushma Naithani, Justin Preece (Plant pathway curation outreach)

            Poster # PO0813: Marcela Karey Tello-Ruiz (Maize annotation jamboree)

  • Gramene Workshop (Tuesday, Jan 15, 1:30 PM-4:00 PM): We would like to invite plant researchers to the Gramene workshop to be held in the California room, Town and Country hotel at San Diego, CA on Tuesday, Jan 15 1:30 PM-4:00 PM. Here, we will review the available data and resources in Gramene, while focusing on an improved search tool and web interface that allows users to interpret and explore queried data, an Ensembl genome browser with 57 plant reference genomes, newly curated pathways and orthologous pathway projections in the Plant Reactome, and integrated plant gene expression data from Expression Atlas. We will showcase the power of Gramene's resources and have invited talks from experts working on rice, maize, EBI Expression Atlas, scoring alternate splicing, machine learning in data mining and updates from the gene structure and pathway curation jamborees.  The workshop is open to everyone. Attendees may bring their own data to discuss their work with the Gramene team.
