Meeting highlights: genome informatics.
We bring you the highlights of the second Joint Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and Wellcome Trust 'Genome Informatics' Conference, organized by Ewan Birney, Suzanna Lewis and Lincoln Stein. There were sessions on in silico data discovery, comparative genomics, annotation pipelines, functional genomics and integrative biology. The conference included a keynote address by Sydney Brenner, who was awarded the 2002 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (jointly with John Sulston and H. Robert Horvitz) a month later.
