The meeting will provide a forum for biocurators and developers of biological databases to discuss their work, promote collaboration and foster a sense of community in this very active and growing area of research. Participants from academia, government, and industry interested in the methods and tools employed in curation of biological data are encouraged to attend.
We’re also co-organising a workshop on ‘Biocuration in Industry’ on the Tuesday from 2-4pm. The workshop will explore biocuration performed in a commercial environment, with the aim of allowing participants to share their experience of workflows, tooling and the some of the challenges they encounter. You can sign up for the workshop here.
Our Scientific Data Specialist & Biocurator Yasmin Alam-Faruque will be presenting at the Biocuration in Industry workshop. Areas to be covered in the workshop include:
