AgBioData will be at PAG 31 in San Diego on Jan. 12-17! Here are some information on when and where you can find us at PAG:
- Join us for our workshop "The AgBioData Consortium: Challenges and Recommendations for FAIR Genetic, Genomic and Breeding Data" on Friday, Jan. 12, at 4 PM in room Town and Country C. Some of our working groups and two talented early-career AgBioData members will present their works. More details are available here.
- Join us at booth #422 and meet our member database resources. We will be there during exhibit hours to discuss our mission and answer your questions.
- AgBioData will have two posters on Monday, Jan. 15, from 3-4.40.
- Our steering committee member, Leonore Reiser, will present about AgBioData and our NSF RCN grant during the workshop "Beyond the National Plant Genome Initiative: New Frontiers and Grand Challenges in Plant Genomics." Her talk is scheduled for Sunday, Jan. 14, at 2:10 PM.
In addition, Ag2PI organized the workshop "Supporting Agricultural Genomics Through Bioinformatics" on Tuesday, Jan. 16, at 6.20 PM in room Palm 8. During the workshop, there will be a roundtable discussion about how bioinformaticians can support the agricultural genomics community in analyzing genomics data. This discussion will be led by plant and animal researchers with a mixture of bioinformatics expertise and topics include:
- current barriers to doing reproducible genomic analyses
- how bioinformatics experts can more effectively support agricultural researchers
- how to ensure students have the bioinformatics skills they will need
- commonalities for genomic analyses across plant, animal and microbial data sets
