that will be given by GDB developers and curators
on June 26 between 9:00 - 12:00 at Ebner Auditorium
The Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot.
The Genome Database (GDB) stores and curates genomic
mapping data submitted by researchers worldwide and
provides this information electronically to the scientific
community. With the release of Version 6.0, GDB becomes
the first database of its kind to allow online public
curation and third party annotation.
An official National Node of the Genome Database World
Wide Web Server is maintained at the Weizmann Institute of
Science Bioinformatics Unit, thus enabling israeli users
to locally interact with the database in a rapid and
efficient way.
The open day will provide an opportunity for users of the
Genome Database to directly ask GDB developers and
curators about data submission and query.
The homepage location of the Genome Database on the World
Wide Web is:
Israeli Node: http://gdb.weizmann.ac.il/
