			<title>Next regular ARB/SILVA Workshop ...</title>
			<link>http://www.arb-silva.de/news/view/2011/08/08/next-regular-arbsilva-workshop/</link>
			<description>... in fall 2011! Extra session on sequence submission and related tools provided by the EBI....</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Finally, we managed to find a date for our next regular ARB/SILVA  Workshop in Bremen, Germany. It will take place <b>October 24 - 28, 2011</b>.  This time it is not a four but <b>five full-day</b> course because we have  added another day of training dedicated&nbsp;to sequence submission and  related services offered by the <b>EBI</b>, partner of the SILVA rRNA gene  database project. The workshop is operated by Ribocon.

<b>Update </b>(August 9): registration closed - workshop fully booked
Thanks a lot for your overwhelming interest in our ARB/SILVA training! The workshop (11 participants) was fully booked within less than 24 hours this time - all-time record. The next course will take place in 2012.]]></content:encoded>
