PRO-PO-GO meeting, ~May 2013
Location: Buffalo, NY
Goals:
1. To educate members of the PRO, PO and GO communities concerning developments in each of the three ontologies, with a view to enhanced coordination 2. To identify potentially fruitful applications which such enhanced coordination might bring 3. To enhance the Protein Ontology treatment of plant-related proteins 4. To address coordination issues between the GO and PO, for example as concerns treatment of development stages 5. To further those aspects of CROP which relate to PRO and GO [this is assuming that PRO is included as one of the external ontologies in CROP]
A first set of participants is as follows:
PO Consortium members: Pankaj Jaiswal, Dennis Stevenson, Barry Smith (Buffalo) who else?
GO Consortium members: Jane Lomax (EBI), Judith Blake (JAX), Alex Diehl (Buffalo) who else?
PRO Consortium members: Cathy Wu, Alan Ruttenberg (Buffalo)
