- Visualisation of microscopy images
Breakout session
- 2D visualisations of proteins shape
- Visualising protein-protein contacts
- There is not much consistency about how proteins are represented. Can we identify some good practice examples and technologies to apply these?
- Contact prediction is now becoming a staple method for structure prediction, but visualising contacts can be tricky. We can use contact maps, but translating the 2D representation to the 3D structure isn't always easy!

The Mythical Man-Month
- Difference between a software and a hardware team?
- "adding manpower to a late software project makes it later"
- "Never underestimate user avoidance of physical activity"
- "Visualize to inform, not to impress"
- win-win teams
- Maintenance conversation - only bosses can do it
- Dealing with budget is easy - each team pays its part
