[LSG-RG] [LSG-RG @ OGF] February 2008 Proteomics Meeting

[Angulo, David]

Thanks, Richard, for your comments.  You are correct, our purpose is to present proteomics / Life Sciences requirements to OGF at large (and particular OGF research groups or working groups).  To do that, we must learn what those requirements are by listening to the experts in the area of high throughput proteomics.  If you know of any potential speakers that have already developed these requirements, we would be very happy to have you present their names for consideration; however, I assume that our group will need to do this work ourselves.

> I would like to start out such an effort by asking for input
> in planning our next meeting, which will be help in February
> 2008 in Boston.  At the meeting in Seattle last week, the
> attendees were extremely interested in the proteomics
> presentations, and the group decided that we would solicit
> proteomics experts to speak at the next meeting.
>
> Thus, I would like to extend a call for presentations in
> proteomics.  We would like to specifically look for proteomic
> mass spectrometry presentations, but all will be considered.
> I would like the membership of this e-mail list to help us in
