Fascination of Plants Day (FoPD) was celebrated around the World on May 18th of 2015
To celebrate FoPD in New York, members of the Ware Lab (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory) brought a little amazement to the young and bright minds of kindergarteners at Bayville Primary School, as well as to a number of children from various elementary schools in the Locust Valley area who are members of the Grenville Baker Boys and Girls Club's Science Club.

Gramene Webinar on Visualization and Analysis of Gene Family Trees
Tuesday, March 17, 2015 @ 2:00 PM EST
Learn the benefits of using Gramene to accelerate your research goals. Our comparative genomics platform of 39 plant species enables you to:
List orthologs and paralogs, and view these relationships within phylogenetic trees, whole genome alignments, and synteny maps.
Explore and visualize functional annotations, expression, and variation in your favorite genes.

There is an immediate opening for a software and database developer to work on the NSF funded Planteome project (www.planteome.org). This open-source computational biology, comparative genomics, and bioinformatics project involves the development and maintenance of databases, software and automated data analysis pipelines. The incumbent will have a proven track record of database development in MySQL (with exposure to Solr, noSQL, and/or MongoDB) and experience developing software in Python, Perl, PHP, and Java.

Plant Reactome is a resource for plant metabolic and regulatory pathways built using the Reactome model. At present, Plant Reactome has curated metabolic and regulatory pathways from rice and Arabidopsis, and the orthology-based projections of pathways for additional 33 plant species including several Oryza species, and maize. We are developing tools that can support analysis and visualization of user-defined expression data.
