Lots of things are called models. He's NOT going to talk about HMM, Bayesian models, sailboat models, supermodels :)

Models and their description/metadata need to be accessible
- Allyson Lister
Models have to be encoded in SBML and follow the MIRIAM guidelines
- Allyson Lister
There's been a steady increase in the numbers of models in BioModels. There are about 35000 reactions and about 400 models.
- Allyson Lister
Standard search functionality available from their website at the EBI (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/biomodels)
- Allyson Lister
Can export in CellML, BioPAX and others (though the SBML is the curated, perhaps more "trusted", version).
- Allyson Lister
You can also just extract portions of the models: these will end up as valid SBML models in their own right.

@Alyson: Sorry to be picky, but the abstract says: "Models are accepted in two common formats, SBML and CellML." :-)

@Dagmar - good point. I thought so as well, but that's what Nicolas said. Can we say it's his fault for saying the wrong thing about his database? ;) (If indeed it is the wrong thing?)
