Next week, two things will be happening. Firstly, on Monday I will be hosting Scientia Pro Publica, a blog carnival for communicating science to the public. If you have an entry that you feel explains a scientific subject in an easy-to-understand way, please submit it here.
Secondly, I will be traveling off to Hawaii, for the American Society of Human Genetics Annual Meeting, a very large genetics conference. I will be giving a talk on Imputation (abstract 240 in the Speakers book) at 7.45am on Saturday, if any imputation-loving insomniacs want to attend.
Perhaps more relevantly, I have bought myself a little Eee PC Seashell, on the condition that I make a serious effort to blog and tweet the conference. My plan is to do a short daily low-down of what is going on, with things that I see that seem significant or new, as well as live tweeting at least a few talks a day over on my Twitter feed. I’ll be tweeting with the hashtag #ASHG2009.
Daniel MacArthur, who has a somewhat better reputation for blogging conferences than I do, will also be there, and it will be well worth your time to follow his blog and his Twitter feed.
