Please advertise through your networks. Convenor, Kate LeMay, Senior Research Data Specialist (health and medical data) at ANDS, was interviewed late in 2016 for the EMBL Australia Bioinformatics Resource. We asked her about bioinformatics in general and the data life-cycle in particular. Her message was clear: using a framework like the data life cycle ensures that Australian bioinformaticians and life scientists will keep up with best practice standards being used and developed internationally.

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!

Doodle poll weirdness
by Michael Charleston 10 Jan '17

10 Jan '17

Hi all, Looks like if you're using Windows and Chrome then the poll is very unhelpful: no times or days are visible! Barbara Holland kindly discovered this strange behaviour which doesn't affect my Ubuntu + Firefox combination, and is also gone if she uses Firefox on her Windows machine; hence I advise that if it looks really broken, try a different browser.

Happy New Year!
by Michael Charleston 09 Jan '17

09 Jan '17

Welcome to 2017, a number with numerous numerical niceties: * it's prime ☺ * the binary expansion is 1111110001 which is rather pretty (I guess 11111100000 was too) * it's 7e1 in hexadecimal * CRISPR<http://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2017/1/3/14093794/crispr-gene-editing…> -- ok so that's nothing to do with the number 2017. * More bioinformatics! -- again, nothing to do with the actual value 2017, but don't hold that against me. This year we promise more workshops, more seminars, more activities! What's on, I hear you ask (in my head)? * Fortnightly meetings with guest seminars! (Dob someone in now!) * Workshops on demand (just start demanding them) * DaSH's Research Bazaar<https://2017.resbaz.com/> * GAMe 2017: Galaxy Australasia Meeting, 3rd-9th February in Melbourne 3rd-9th February (link here<https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/>) * Lorne Genome conference, 12-14 February in Lorne, Victoria (probably too late to get to these two but you never know) * If you can't get to these this year maybe put them in your diaries for *next* year. * COMBINE and ABACBS, 13-15 November in Adelaide (link here<http://www.abacbs.org/conference/>) * Australasian Evolution Society Annual Meeting * Phylomania #9 * These last two are to be coordinated; dates to be determined but late November / early December looking likely It's also a good time to work out when are good meeting times. We had alternate Thursdays 4-5pm, but perhaps that isn't a great time. So there's a Doodle Poll to help us decide..

p.s. DKD Tea information
by Michael Charleston 31 Oct '16

31 Oct '16

In case you didn't already see it, this is the relevant information: Dear researcher, Please come to the first of the Data, Knowledge and Decisions (DKD) Teas, from 2pm to 5pm on the afternoon of 3rd November, in the Function Room on level 4 of the Centenary building, Sandy Bay campus. This will be a fully catered networking and brainstorming event designed to engender research collaborations across both the DKD theme and the themes it supports. Activities are scheduled to go from 2-4pm, and we are catered for 3-5pm. To begin with there will be short talks from different Data, Knowledge and Decisions researchers in Humanities and Health, some brainstorming activities, then an opportunity to network ideas and discuss future research ideas to take forward. We realise you’re mostly likely horribly busy, so we would be very appreciative if you could spend this time for the Theme. Please let us know if you'll be available to come to this first DKD Tea; we'd love to see you. (It's even a good reason to get away from exam marking...) Space is limited to 40, but don't worry if you cannot make this one: there will be other DKD Teas coming soon to a campus near you! RSVP<https://goo.gl/forms/qPuBu7RZXeW3RABS2> for catering purposes' date (by COB 31 Oct 2016).
