Help us improve PhyloFacts

Please help us improve the utility of the PhyloFacts resource to the scientific community by filling out this short survey.

We know your time is precious, so there are no required questions. You can scroll down to the bottom of the page (where we provide a free-text comment box) and click Submit at any time. If you answer all the questions, it should take no more than 3 minutes.

PhyloFacts is located at phylogenomics.berkeley.edu/phylofacts/

Stand-alone tools for phylogenomic analysis are located at phylogenomics.berkeley.edu/tools.php

1. I am best described as a

	Bioinformaticist/computational biologist
	Experimental biologist
	Software engineer
	Other

2. The kind of data I need to analyze is

	Single gene/protein sequences
	Whole genomes (for functional annotation)
	EST data
	Next-generation sequencing data (e.g., metagenome data)
	Protein families (up to a few hundred sequences)

3. If your research is restricted to a particular species or taxonomic group, what species do you work on?

4. My primary bioinformatics needs are:

	Not important	Moderately important	Very important
Protein function prediction
Protein structure prediction
Predicting protein-protein interaction
Predicting pathway association
Predicting cellular localization
Finding orthologs
Predicting functional residues
Constructing phylogenetic trees
Predicting post-translational modifications

5. PhyloFacts tools used (choose as many as apply)

	PhyloFacts sequence search
	FlowerPower
	PhyloBuilder
	Browsing PhyloFacts
	INTREPID functional residue prediction
	SATCHMO (Simultaneous Alignment and Tree Construction using HMMs)
	SCI-PHY (subfamily identification)
	Download data from PhyloFacts
	Ortholog identification

6. How often have you used PhyloFacts?

7. How useful do you find PhyloFacts tools?

Not useful	Somewhat useful	Very useful

8. Please give us concrete feedback on how we can improve individual tools. (Optional)

PhyloFacts sequence search
PhyloFacts family page display
PhyloBuilder
FlowerPower
SATCHMO
SCI-PHY
Ortholog prediction

9. I am interested in learning more about the following:

	Biological curator tools (editing PhyloFacts books to add annotations)
	Private PhyloFacts library (space and tools for your own books)
	Beta testing new PhyloFacts tools
	Workshops in phylogenomics, annotation jamborees, etc.
	Phylogenomic wikipedia development
