 The symposium focuses on the latest developments in
 the area of
 annotation of genes in large genomes.  Topics
 covered are (i) genome based 
 methodologies of identifying genes and other gene
 structural elements; 
 (ii) first-hand experiences from annotating large
 genomes;
 and (iii) bioinformatics aspects of large-scale
 genome annotation 
 pipelines.
 Abstracts for poster presentation covering any of
 the above issues are
 invited.
 
 The journal Briefings in Bioinformatics 
 (http://www.henrystewart.com/journals/BiB/)
 acts as the supporting publication for the
 symposium. The proceedings of 
 the symposium will be covered in a special issue in
 this journal.
