"It's tempting to see bioinformatics as a collection of potential problems. Being at a GMOD meeting helps us see bioinformatics as a collection of potential solutions."
Isabelle Phan, SBRI, and January 2009 GMOD Meeting Participant

GMOD puts on several types of meetings and GMOD related content is prominently featured in other meetings. This page brings all those meetings together in one place.

GMOD Community Meetings

January 2010 GMOD Meeting

Once or twice a year the GMOD community gathers to discuss GMOD components, usage, and direction. These meetings usually occur immediately before or after a major conference that is likely to be of interest to members of the community. These meetings are open to everyone: developers, users, and potential users. Registration is usually free or low cost.

Here's a partial list of GMOD meetings.

2002 NIH 2002 Workshop on Model Organism Databases NIH, Bethesda, Maryland

Training and Outreach

The GMOD project also offers several Training and Outreach options such as GMOD Summer School. These aren't project meetings per se, but they are opportunities to learn more about GMOD and network with other GMOD community members.
