Discussion points

Community curation with post-docs/grad students

While they cannot work in the lab, could we get students/post docs to do GO curation ?

GO Release

Alliance seem to need our release to be on time. Anyone knows how often/when we should release?

GO virtual meeting Paris

  • (Pascale proposal:)

Chris had suggested we do some virtual trainings- why dont we get that started now so we get some experience prior to the users meeting ?

  • New wiki pages and eventbrite registrations - ready to announce again for registration, especially user meeting

COVID-19

  • What can/should GO be doing, not just in terms of virus annotation, but wrt helping direct energy towards curation efforts, e.g. from graduate students who can't go into their labs?
