Dear Ontology Group, I am forwarding both the address, and agenda(as att : PDF file) of the recent symposium entitled 2009 International Symposium Global Approaches to Translational Research University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine Held April 14-15, 2009 http://www.itmat.upenn.edu/symposium09_media.shtml Of particular importance to note are the following : -The specific “titles” of each presentation given -The individuals/backgrounds of those delivering presentations Each talk is available online for viewing if interested. I recommend the bioinformatics talks, especially : Translational Bioinformatics Atul Butte, MD, PhD, Assistant Professor, Stanford University and Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital I believe our group will benefit greatly by becoming a part of the next meeting. I feel what we are doing is an extremely important piece of the translational puzzle, and that communication with others involved in similar faculties will likely enhance project potential. It may even provide us with methods of funding, and a chance to express ideas to leading translational parties/individuals. If nothing else, I hope you find the att: informational. Any thoughts or comments, feel free to write me at any point. Looking forward, Chris Dr.Christopher A.
