RECOMB 2004 Regulatory Genomics Satellite Workshop

March 30, 2004 -- The First Annual RECOMB Satellite Workshop on Regulatory Genomics took place March 26-27, 2004, on the campus of the University of California, San Diego in La Jolla, CA (http://www.cse.ucsd.edu/%7Eeeskin/recombreg04/), immediately preceding RECOMB 2004, which also took place in San Diego. The conference addressed one of the main challenges facing researchers today in bioinformatics: deciphering the regulatory mechanisms of genes, a challenge that includes detecting the transcription factor binding sites involved in regulation as well as discovering the regulatory networks. The event was organized by UCSD Jacobs School of Engineering computer science and engineering professor Eleazar Eskin, and sponsored by the UC Discovery Grant program, the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology [Calit²], and the Jacobs School. Video of the entire two-day proceedings was also streamed in real-time to the Web, and the individual presentations are now available for viewing on-demand below. (RealOne Player or RealPlayer required to view the streaming video.)
