Welcome to the GENETIC-LINKAGE board. I hope that that people will use this board for the discussion and solving of problems in any area of Human Genetic Linkage. I particularly hope to encourage a forum of information exchange on software and the application thereof. Postings from end-users as well as developers are welcome. I have agreed to act as overseer for the board, which at present is unmoderated. To set the ball rolling, here is an announcement for a course in Computing and Genetic Linkage that several of use are organising in August. As well as the communication routes indicated, please feel free to reply to me at s_bryant@icrf.ac.uk . &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& COMPUTING COURSE ON HUMAN GENETIC LINKAGE AND RELATED TOPICS This course will take place on Sept 2-6,1991 at the Porto Conte Research and Training Laboratories (PCRTL), Alghero, Italy. The course tutors are Steve Bryant, John Attwood, Sue Povey, John Yates, David Judge and Martin Bishop. Attendants are expected to have a general background in linkage analysis and familiarity with standard types of personal computers. Cost for attending the course (tuition and living expenses on the campus) will amount to 1000 ECU. It is possible that a number of fellowships will be available to defray expenses for travel, tuition and lodging.
