Keynote Speaker: Scott Cain, Ph.D., Coordinator, Generic Model Organisms Database, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York
Title: "The GMOD infrastructure project"
The Generic Model Organism Database (GMOD) project is a program to develop generic, reusable software components for building organism databases. The resulting collection of software tools can be used for creating and managing both small laboratory database of genome annotations and large web-accessible community database. GMOD tools are in use at FlyBase, WormBase, SGD, BeeBase and many other large and small community databases. I will introduce several of the GMOD components and discuss several options for configuring and using the software.
