Available on-line at http://genex.hgu.mrc.ac.uk/ EMAP forms the framework for the gene expression database EMAGE. The EMAGE database will assist researchers studying mouse development, and it is expected that many laboratories will want to submit the results of their gene expression experiments. A two-day course has been devised to take participants step-by-step through the use of EMAP and EMAGE resources. The course will also train researchers in how to submit their own data to the EMAGE database, and demonstrate how this resource will help researchers to interpret their own gene expression results. Moreover, by mapping their data onto a common blueprint, researchers will be able to compare their gene expression results with other data from different laboratories around the world. Subjects considered on the course will be: - Classification of Developmental Stages - Introduction to the Anatomy Browser - Explanation of EMAGE - data route from Submission to Inclusion - Mapping Data (Tie points and painting) - Database Querying Participants are strongly encouraged to bring their own gene expression data in the form of JPG or GIF images of wholemount or sectioned 'in situs', as there will be plenty of time on the course to make a genuine submission.
