RECOMB meeting on system biology and reverse engineering was held at MIT, Cambridge, MA in the fall of 2008. The poster was showing the various features of the interactive diagrams that we started publishing in the spring of 2008. One particular feature of the diagrams is that other pathways that are triggered by the pathway the diagram depicts can be accessed offering users the ability to 'walk' from one diagram to another and explore pathway connectivity. The feature exploits the availability of the ontology and the resources of the Pathway Studio software from Ariadne Genomics.

The Biology of Genomes May 2008 meeting was held at CSHL. The poster, in addition to presenting the ontology and annotations, was showing a few of the interactive pathway diagrams that we started publishing in the spring of 2008 using the Pathway Studio software from Ariadne Genomics in conjunction with a CMS (Content Management System).

Rat Genomics and Models 2007 meeting was held on December 6-9 at Cold Spring Harbor. Many people from HMGC, including RGD attended the meeting and presented in talks or posters. I have attached the poster I presented on pathway data at RGD - the development and structure of the Pathway Ontology (PW), the annotations of targeted pathways in conjunction with the Disease Portals and across three species (rat, human, mouse), possible future collaborations.

The talks and abstracts and the photo gallery can be viewed, upon registration, at:
