Presentations
A number of the older presentations that I did are available as HTML-ised PowerPoint presentations for those who are interested. Note that some of these presentations are several years old and hence data/statements made in these presentations may be out of date.
The newer presentations are all stored as PDF files since the newer versions of PowerPoint try to be smart in saving/positioning graphics/diagrams, but failing miserably in representing even simple graphs truthfully on any browser.
- [2005]. ISMB 2005 (Detroit, MI, USA) Poster: "ASD: a Bioinformatics Resource on Alternative Splicing".
- [2005]. Technical/Practical overview of running the AltSplice alternative splicing compute pipeline. Target audience: group members who are going to run data builds on a regular basis.
- [2004]. ISMB 2004 (Glasgow, UK) Poster: "ASD: the Alternative Splicing Database".
- [2003]. Methodologies in the Alternative Splicing computational pipeline. Gives a rough overview of the methodologies that we use in the compute pipeline for AltSplice - the database of alternative splices exons/introns, splice patterns, and events. Presented at both staff seminar and the workshop "Alternative Splicing: Biology & Data" on 8-9 July 2003 that was organised by the ASD team.
Older presentations
