Dear Web-aware-Bionet announcements readers,

We would like to tell you about a new web page and a way of keeping

     for the workshops, and about the UBC/UofT/UNB sponsored
     Certificate in Bioinformatics.
   * Bioinformatics events boards
   * Worldwide (bioinformatics.ca curated) bioinformatics recsourses
     directory.
   * "Who's who" in the Canadian bioinformatics scene
   * Canadian Bioinformatics programs

   * $5000 bursary enabling them to attend either the CBW
   * Bioinformatics Workshop in Vancouver in February/March 2002 or
   * the NCBI Toolkit workshop in Windsor in May, 2002.

*   If you want to get on a list of announcements for
    bioinformatics.ca, please visit: 

   http://bioinformatics.ca/mailinglist.php

Please note that this is not a mailing list open to all, only
infrequent messages from the bioinformatics.ca staff will be posted
here, and we believe that they will always be of high content value
for your mail box. (as you can see from this message!)

As always, please feel free to contact us (curators at bioinformatics.ca)
if you have any questions/interest in Canadian Bioinformatics
announcements, or have any concerns about anything on
bioinformatics.ca.

Salutation a tous,

francis
