<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">Hi, Dave,<br>
<br>
Thanks for the information, I applied for the training twice since I am not satisfied with the first statement of interests, I also found I am more interested in GMOD components after I learned more from GMOD website.<br>
<br>
I want to state my interests here to show my strong intention to attend training:<br>
<br>
Last year, I have used CMAP, pathway-tools and GBrowser, GBrowser is used very often in our lab to show all kinds of data such as RNAseq data, we used it to help identify the events such us alternative splicing. I also used pathway-tools to do pathway prediction.<br>
<br>
I hope I can explore more aspects of tools which we are using, such us showing individual reads in Gbrowser.<br>
<br>
I am considering to integrate other GMOD componets on our developing websites.<br>
<br>
My other interests (but not limited) are:<br>
<br>
The relationship among all kinds of GMOD components.<br>
The limitations and future directions of the existing tools. I read the paper that JBrowser has some problems with IE.<br>
Logistics behind the tools and schema of poplar databases such us Chado and BioSQL.<br>
<br>
Due to my limited time and limited knowledge about GMOD, it will benefit me a lot to attend GMOD taning and get important help and views from experienced developers.<br>
<br>
Thanks and wish you a joyful new year too!<br>

These components will be covered:<br>
* Apollo - genome annotation editor<br>
* Chado - biological database schema<br>
* Galaxy - analysis and data integration framework<br>
* GBrowse - genome viewer<br>
* GBrowse_syn - synteny viewer<br>
* GFF3 - genome annotation file format and tools<br>
* InterMine - biological data mining system<br>
* JBrowse - next generation genome browser<br>
* MAKER - genome annotation pipeline<br>
* Tripal - web front end to Chado databases<br>
<br>
The deadline for applying is the end of Friday, January 7, 2011.<br>
Admission is competitive and is based on the strength of the<br>
