Welcome to the HGMP Resource Centre's seminar series.  These seminars
have been introduced to promote the interaction between the HGMP-RC and
the research community. 

Each term we will be inviting six to eight speakers to give us a
seminar.  The invited speakers will be experts on our major fields of
interest: bioinformatics, functional genomics, expression profiling at
both the mRNA and protein levels, mutation analysis, linkage,
comparative DNA sequencing, gene inactivation studies, and technology
development. 

We will be providing refreshments after the talks to encourage more
discussion with the speakers and also between the attendees.  If you
have any suggestions, even the names of potential speakers, please let
us know.  The seminars are open to staff on campus, and the general
public.
