Third International World-Wide Web Conference

Workshop E: Biology on the Web

Chair: Reinhard Doelz

Half-day workshop on Monday, April 10, 1995
2:00 pm - 5:30 pm

Room: 48/052


Since the conference in 1994 at Geneva, the demand for WWW applications in Biology is rising steadily, and new applications show up instantaneously. Two areas of interest will be tackled specifically:

AREA A:
Biology and the Web - Getting scientific data from a General Purpose Information System. How to fully accommodate today's applications.
AREA B:
Scientists and their views - Different data and methods cause different displays of similar conclusions. How can the scientists unite responses from different sources?

The approaches chosen to expand on Areas A or B might include contributions on:

Background - Selected URL's
