The rapid advances in genomics technology mean that we are discovering genes faster than we can figure out what they do. For most new sequences, gene function will be inferred by comparison with well-studied model systems such as E. coli. This means that the quality of functional annotation for these models is very important for the future of biology.
The Community Assessment of Community Annotation with Ontologies (CACAO) is being developed at Texas A&M as a competition for teams of undergrads around the world to improve the functional annotation of genes. We're looking for volunteers to help us test CACAO this Spring.
