Dear Paul,
BioMOO is a networked virtual environment. Simply it is a place where u can
telnet to and communicate with other scientists.
It is physically based in the Weizmann institute in Israel. Scientists from
all over the globe telnet here and discuss science with other scientists.
To date we have had several well-attended seminars/journal clubs. In fact,
last Wednesday we had a journal club regarding gene therapy and the CNS.
Approx. 30-35 people attend these and we hold this in our seminar room in
the BioLand.
Furthermore, we hope BioMOO will be a teaching tool/source for various
facilities. There is so much to tell about this new place. (est. in Jan)
The best way to find out is to go there.
To get there type:
telnet bioinfo.weizmann.ac.il 8888 (note the 8888 is necessary)
if this does not work then try
telnet bioinfo.weizmann.ac.il /port=8888
then follow on screen instructions. Once connected you can read the purpose
and tutuorial of BioMOO for more info.
Any qus. or probs. then feel free to email me
Martin Leach
