PROGRAMMING JAMBOREE
May 8-12, 2006

Hosted by the NCI Center for Bioinformatics
at the Executive Plaza North (EPN) rooms CDEF
6130 Executive Blvd
Rockville, MD 20852

Directions

Everyone interested in microarray data standards is welcome to attend the first day talks and tutorials. The programming part of the jamboree (days 2-5) is directed for programmers, ontology and array domain experts with existing knowledge on MAGE. The purpose of the jamboree is to give the programmers an opportunity to come together to work on the next version of MAGE and the MGED ontology. Please make your own hotel and travel arrangements, and if you are planning to participate in the programming part of the jamboree, bring your own laptop computer.
