Apologies in advance- this is a little off topic but I think it should be of interest to many here.

For a second year we are teaching a "Ontologies for Evolutionary Biology" sponsored by NESCent on July 29th in Durham, NC. Details are here: http://bit.ly/ZAQ6Dt . Please forward this to any interested parties. Last year we had a broad spectrum of "students", from advanced undergrads to Professors nearing retirement.

If you have questions please message me off-list.

Thanks,
