PAMGO Workshop
(https://www.vbi.vt.edu/public_relations/press_releases/genome_annotation_workshop_series_2007)
Virginia Bioinformatics Institute
August 8-10, 2007

The PAMGO and Oomycete Bioinformatics workshops were run concurrently August 8-10, 2007. The first two days for both workshops were dedicated to presentations on structural genomics and functional genomics including in-depth coverage of the Gene Ontology and the use of PAMGO terms in the annotation and analysis of gene products from microbes that associate with plant and animal hosts. The second day August 9th was devoted to hands-on exercises involving literature-based PAMGO annotations.
