Hi Andreas,

Thank you for your reply.
In the page you suggested I can find the following items:

- Genbank parser
- Balibase
- UniProt (XML/txt)

Do you believe any of these are worthy of a masters project? I am asking
this because I don't know what is involved.
I guess a parser should be a "simple" job (1-2 weeks)? I need something
that a student would be working during 3-6 months.
The work should result in a small conference publication/poster.

Something that could be done would be an app that needs one of those
modules, so the student would need to develop the module and the app.
Which of those 3 itens (if any, or others), in your point of view, would be
the most interesting for a masters project? If so, where can I find
information about the problem?

Thank you for your time,
