			EMBL-EBI SYMPOSIUM

		Genome Based Gene Structure Determination
			1-2 June 2000

		Call for registration and poster abstracts.

Details : http://industry.ebi.ac.uk/gp2000
Contact : genepred2000@ebi.ac.uk

The symposium focuses on the latest developments in the area of
annotation of genes in large genomes.  Topics covered are (i) genome
based 
methodologies of identifying genes and other gene structural elements; 
(ii) first-hand experiences from annotating large genomes;
and (iii) bioinformatics aspects of large-scale genome annotation
pipelines.
Abstracts for poster presentation covering any of the above issues are
invited.

The invited speakers include
  Michael Ashburner  (European Bioinformatics Institute, England) 
  Ewan Birney  (European Bioinformatics Institute, England) 
  Richard Durbin  (Sanger Centre, England) 
  Mikhail Gelfand  (Centre for Biotechnology, Russia)
