The First Cistrome Meeting (07/21/06)
Dear Colleagues,
With the commercial availability of genome tiling microarrays, all of us have dabbled on conducting ChIP-chip to study the genome-wide interaction between trans-factors and cis-elements. We are thinking of organizing a series of informal Cistrome meetings to exchange scientific insights and experiences in this exploration. For the first meeting, however, we will focus on the technical aspects of ChIP-chip. Apparently, ChIP-chip on tiling array is not a trivial task, and many labs have to deal with technical and analysis problems and trouble shooting. Our first meeting will aim to find a solution to these challenges, and help labs get their ChIP-chip working more smoothly.
The temporary date for the Cistrome meeting is set on Friday 7/21. We will update you on the program schedule later. Please let us know whether people in your lab will be interested in coming, and whether this date is convenient. If there are specific questions you would like to discuss and get answers, please let us know so we can schedule it in the program. We would appreciate an estimate head count from each lab so we can reserve a conference room with the right size. Finally, please help us forward this email to members in your lab and other colleagues who might be interested.
Thank you!
