"Searching and analyzing biological data and patented sequences using
BONDplus"

Colin Williams, Product Manager Biology & Bioinformatics

     This session will provide an introduction to BONDplus, which was
released by Thomson Scientific in August 2007, and which links patented
sequences in GENESEQ, public domain sequences and biomolecular
interactions. We will demonstrate how BONDplus can be used by
biologists, intellectual property professionals and bioinformaticians,
all of whom may have different needs. Also presented will be future
plans for addition of content and applications and an opportunity to
comment on the relevancy of these plans to you.

 

"Searching at the interface of small molecules and biological molecules"

Donald Walter, Training Executive

     Some indexing tools are built to describe small molecules, some are
built to describe macromolecules, and some are built to describe
biological molecules. If only the searches we are asked to conduct were
so neatly classified! This talk will focus on some techniques for
handling searches involving both small molecules (e.g. drugs) and
biological molecules (e.g. receptors).

 

"Thomson Innovation: An Introduction"

Mark Markley, Product Specialist

     This session will focus on the new Thomson Innovation Intellectual
Property tool. Thomson Innovation will contain both first level patent
information, including information from some surprising sources, and the
value add of the Derwent World Patent Index database. It will also
contain references from the technical literature and business
information, all in one place. The session will focus on the current
state of the platform, as well as address improvements over current
Thomson offerings, including PatentWeb and Delphion. Searching, display
and exporting features will be discussed, as will the future direction
of the product.

 

 

There is no charge for attending, but registration is required. For
more information, and to register, please email/fax Donald Walter.
