Bioinformatics TV

OK, so this might be old news to some people. But screw Google Video, the Research Channel (via Inforbiomatica) has lots of bioinformatics related programming.... mainly videotaped lectures. Streaming videos in their archives cover ncRNA, the basics of clustering (including clustering of gene expression data), regulatory networks, motif discovery and an appearance by William Noble (previously mentioned here in the SVM tutorial) talking about transcriptional regulatory modules.

I didn't have time to watch all of the talks because Desperate Housewives was on TV. However, there's a lot there to explore. I particularly liked Breaking the Code, about sequencing Arabidopsis, a cress so dangerous that you have to wear futuristic safety googles when handling it in case it explodes in your face. So I gathered, anyway.
ResearchChannel is a consortium of research universities and corporate research divisions dedicated to broadening the access to and appreciation of our individual and collective activities, ideas, and opportunities in basic and applied research.

For our many viewers on cable, direct broadcast satellite, and the Internet, ResearchChannel is the C-SPAN of scientific and medical research.
Nice to see bioinformatics on TV, even if it is C-SPAN.
