This survey contains 20 questions.  Respondants that complete both sections of the survey are entitled to receive a 10% discount off any CBRi course.

SURVEY SECTION ONE – 11 questions

Would your research capability be enhanced or improved by learning more about the following topics?

  Your Name:
  Organization Name:
1. Database similarity searching
(e.g. Doing BLAST searches to find potential homologues of a gene)

   Yes No
2. Multiple sequence alignments & phylogenetics
(e.g. comparing several similar proteins to look for functional relationships)

   Yes No
3. Sequence feature prediction
(e.g. de novo gene prediction or promoter prediction)

   Yes No
4. Bioinformatics programming
(e.g. design of Perl scripts for simple data manipulation)

   Yes No
5. Protein structure analysis & structure/function prediction
(e.g. 3D structural comparisons to identify mechanisms of drug action)

   Yes No
6. Microarray analysis
(e.g. interpretation/data mining from microarray experiments)

   Yes No
7. Chemi-informatics software
(e.g. generating, managing and interpreting data from high-throughput chemical assays)

   Yes No
8. Database management
(e.g. design of efficient data storage and retrieval systems for high data output research)

   Yes No
9. Biological fundamentals
(e.g. focused background information for non-biologists)

   Yes No
10.
What is the most important computational restriction in your current work?
(i.e. “I would like to compare large sets of human and mouse ESTs under set criterion”)
11.
What process/feature/tool/knowledge would allow you to overcome that restriction?
(i.e. “my work would be more efficient if I could automate the EST retrieval process”)
