TM conference call

Hi TMers,
  In today's teleconference call we'll welcome two new members: Dr. Fred Whipple and Dr. Iker Huerga. Fred is a genomics educator who provides with physicians with the knowledge to understand and use SNP-based disease risk tests (more about Fred at [1]). Iker is the co-founder of LINKatu[2], a company which aims to support data integration through semantic web technologies in life sciences environments, and has made already built applications out of our TMKB. Iker will be giving us a brief presentation of what's he's done. After the presentation we'll talk about the paper, and how our new members can join us in that effort.
