A few weeks ago I introduced y'all to Genoinformatics, the hot new abbreviation for Genome Informatics (some sort of derivative of Bioinformatics). I pointed out that I have quite a few international collaborators in this research area, including people in Italy (Geno Informatico), Germany (Jan Informatik) and Mexico (Juan Informatica). I'm hoping that one of them makes it to this CSH/Wellcome conference on Genome Informatics in September. Maybe they could even give a presentation on the Genome-ome.

In 2009, I've done ~9 reviews of journal articles, including two in the past week, and not counting the 1-2 more looming in the next two weeks. During the same period, I've submitted one 1st author manuscript, still in review, but probably only going cost 3 reviewers some time.
Anyone see a mass…
