Esymbio

Esymbio is a shared webspace resource, partly funded by the North-West Genetics Knowledge Park (NowGen). Registration is currently free and permits access to various resources. One immediate use is that of live access to webcasts of the Manchester Medical Genetics seminar series. You can do this on your own PC (using headphones so as not to disturb colleagues) or do what the Liverpool lab does, which is to book a seminar room and watch together using a projector.
