Dear all,
As I’ve mentioned before there is to be a web space for bioinformatics, at http://www.utas.edu.au/bioinformatics.
It’s now being created for us (it fell through the cracks once it was approved, but they're back on track now).
Can anyone help me out with the following?
* I need some funky bioinformatics-y graphics. I have some of my own but the more the better. If you have some great high-quality graphics relating to your bioinformatics work, or organisms you are studying, and you’re willing to have them go on the UTAS “face of bioinformatics” page, please let me know! There are some fine examples of what can be done herehttp://www.utas.edu.au/research/research-rankings-and-performance and herehttp://www.utas.edu.au/land-food, and don’t forget the sage advice on what to include, herehttps://xkcd.com/773/. * I will add my name, and Jac Charlesworth’s as “People mainly associated with bioinformatics here at UTAS”. If you’d like your home page or lab page or contact details findable on this site, please let me know and I will send the information on to the web services team. I’m not assuming you want to spend heaps of time on it, but if you want to take a more admin/leading role let me know that too! (I’m ok if you don’t; just don’t want to leave people out..) * At present the idea is to have a fairly standard format: Home / Research / News / People / Contact / Resources menus, and a link to the blog, which will be at https://blogs.utas.edu.au/bioinformatics/ and which have all the content imported from our current unofficial blog. But maybe I’m missing something! Is there something in particular that you feel we should urgently have? I’ll be able to make edits on the site so it won’t be set in stone, but it would be good to have it more-or-less right when it goes live. Perhaps a “find an expert” page, or a “career advice” or “my data are awful what do I do?” page. Speak now, or, well, later!
Right that’s enough for now: I have programming to do.
