[Myexperiment-discuss] Re: Cardiovascular Disease - book chapter

[Paul Fisher]

Dear Steve,

Unfortunately I have had no response about the book chapter as yet. The 
person with whom I am corresponding is contactable, but has not given 
any feedback yet.

With respect to the NAR paper  - these are the only citations I can find:

  1. 
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6W8B-4RY6WS8-1&_user=10&_rdoc=1&_fmt=&_orig=search&_sort=d&view=c&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=10&md5=f44bb5f7b9e5c12be8ae3048ab562982
  2. http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/8/S8/P7
  3. ftp://ftp.fao.org/docrep/fao/010/i0072t/i0072t02.pdf

I may know of a few others but I'm not sure if they are 
finished/published or not. I hope the myGrid team can help out here.

*MyGrid + myExperiment *(*urgent*!!!!), Can you please let me know if 
you have cited my NAR paper 
(http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/35/16/5625) and it has 
been accepted/published. Steve Kemp from the Wellcome Trust African 
Trypanosomiasis project would like an update, and it may mean a prize 
and more recognition for workflows!!!

With respect to the workflows, I am unsure as to the groups that have 
used my workflows, but, on the myExperiment web site, they come in as 
highly downloaded and viewed:

  1. http://www.myexperiment.org/workflows/16 - QTL to pathway workflow
     (*Viewed:* 1113 times | *Downloaded:* 1148 times)
  2. http://www.myexperiment.org/workflows/19 - Probeset to Pathway
     workflow (*Viewed:* 857 times | *Downloaded:* 789 times)
  3. http://www.myexperiment.org/workflows/13* - *Compare Probeset and
     QTL pathways (*Viewed:* 682 times | *Downloaded:* 533 times)

The most downloaded workflow, http://www.myexperiment.org/workflows, is 
buitl upon the Probeset to Pathway workflow in the NAR paper. This is a 
re-use example where it has been adapted to perfom data analysis from 
the CEL file directly, and then output a list of KEGG pathways from 
differentially expressed genes. I helped to build this workflow with a 
researcher in Sheffield (Afsaneh - Cc'd). Afsaneh. could you please give 
a little description of why it was built and where it is used?

I'm not really sure if this all helps you. The myGrid and myExperiment 
teams may be able to help you out a lot better. Sorry.
N.B. I think this comes back to why users of myExperiment need updates 
as to who downloaded their workflows and re-used them - see Paul + Marco 
conversations in earlier myExperiment discuss!!!

regards,
Paul.
