Cathy's message below was typical of the "camaraderie" we experienced
last week during the Madison Yeast Genetics and Molecular Biology
meeting, sponsored by the Genetic Society of America (GSA).
The three of us (SGD, YPD and NCBI) just spent a week together in
Madison in the "computer-demo-room". It was great to see all the
users, having the opportunity to show you our tools, and to spend the
time with you all. It was a very busy week, and therefore a success as
far as we where concerned!
I also had good discussions with Charlie Hoffman and Susan Forsbug (my
two pombe friends :), and we have thought of some ideas to re-activate
this newsgroup in a way that would encourage interesting discussions
about important issues which affect yeast biology ... more on this
later.
A big "Thank You" to Mark Johnston (co-chair) and Fred Winston
(co-chair) and all the members of the organization committee for
organizing this year's meeting. It was a great success, all around!
cheers,
f.
