- Consistency among annotations for homologous genes
- Analysis of co-annotation of different GO terms to the same gene
- Competency questions
Ideas from GOC Meetings
- Objective: Define a new format for annotation consistency exercises.
- Suggestions from Corvallis GOC meeting:
- Kimberly: Perhaps have specialized focus groups.
- Suzi/Judy: Blog for describing case studies
- Ruth: Define what information should be included in annotation documentation (e.g. a flowchart)
- David: Have invited guest annotators
- Helen: paper-by-paper has run its course (as KvA said). Move discussion to pathways that are shared between species. Work out the hard stuff, conventional pathways (e.g. the cancer pathways)
- Sabrina: Walk through a Noctua model to explain the thought process the curator went through (useful for neophyte curators)
- Ruth:have working groups publish papers with their conclusions
- Moni: In addition to blogs have the annotation group contribute training materials (e.g. short videos)
