Hello,
The deadline to apply for the GMOD Summer School is in one week, July 9th. The application is available as a Google Form:

In the GMOD Summer School (August 24-29, 2012) we will cover the installation, configuration and use of a variety of GMOD tools, including Chado, GBrowse, JBrowse and Galaxy. For more information on the course, see the course web page at
http://gmod.org/wiki/2012_GMOD_Summer_School
The course will make heavy use of the Amazon Web Service (aka, the Cloud) via a grant from Amazon. Enrollment is limited to 24 students, and the application process is competitive: the last few years we've received over 75 applications for those 24 spots.
I look forward to seeing you in North Carolina in August!
