In a project as highly collaborative as caArray, frequent and open communication among all stakeholders is critical to success. In order to communicate with the broadest group possible about the status and direction of caArray project, we have decided to move the content of our monthly caArray User meetings to the caBIG® Integrative Cancer Research (ICR) Workspace meetings. These meetings are currently held twice a month, 2:00-4:00pm ET, on the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month. A caArray update will be on the agenda about every other month. We hope the community will use these opportunities to learn about upcoming releases of caArray, to learn new features implemented in caArray, and to provide feedback on experiences.
The agenda for the meetings in which caArray will be discussed will be sent to the caArray Users listserv and posted to the caArray Users forum a few days prior to the meetings. In addition, you are welcome to join the ICR Workspace listserv.
The ICR Workspace Meeting information is the following:
800-593-0616, passcode 2927756

On this page we will post the slides for each caArray user meeting. Please use the caArray forum if you have any question or comment.
