[Open-bio-l] Fwd: [galaxy-dev] GCC2019 Talk Abstracts due Monday, 22, April

[Peter Cock]

Hello all,

I know many of the Bio* community are involved in Galaxy at
some level, so in case you missed this, I heartily recommend
the annual Galaxy Conference - and they take talks both with
an applied slant, and at the very technical end. See email below.

As you may know, last year the OBF and the Galaxy team
held a combined Bioinformatics Community Conference,
GCCBOSC 2018 (Galaxy Community Conference /
Bioinformatics Open Source Conference) in the USA.

This year BOSC 2019 is back as part of ISMB/ECCB 2019, in
Basel, Switzerland - and while the main abstract call has closed,
you can still submit a late breaking lightning talk or poster
(deadline 15 May):

https://www.open-bio.org/events/bosc/

Thanks,

Peter

(I am on the BOSC organising committee, and the OBF board -
the nice people at open-bio.org running this mailing list etc)

2019 Galaxy Community Conference (GCC2019)
1-8 July, Freiburg, Germany

Deadlines
22 April: Oral Presentation and Lightning Talk abstracts due
17 May: Early registration ends

The 2019 Galaxy Community Conference (GCC2019) will be held 1-8 July
in Freiburg, Germany. GCC brings together hundreds of faculty,
clinicians, researchers, and students, all working in and supporting
data intensive science that is accessible, sharable and reproducible.

GCC2019 features oral presentations, lightning talks, posters, demos,
birds-of-a-feather gatherings (BoFs), training, a CollaborationFest,
and plenty of opportunities for networking.

Presentations will cover the full spectrum of Galaxy applications,
enhancements and deployments. If you are working in data intensive
science then GCC2019 is an ideal conference for sharing your work,
learning from others, and finding new collaborators.

Present your work!
Abstract submission for talks, lightning talks, demos and posters is
now open. If you work in data-intensive science then please consider
presenting your work at GCC2019. This is a chance to present to 200+
researchers, all addressing challenges in data intensive science.
Review of oral presentations starts on 22 April. Submit an abstract
(or two) now!

Registration
Early registration starts at €49/day for students and postdocs, and
€79 / day for other academics and non-profit researchers.  Childcare
is available and travel fellowships are available as well.  Early
registration ends 17 May, when rates go up by 60%. So, register early.

About Galaxy
Galaxy (https://galaxyproject.org/) is a platform for data integration
and analysis in the life sciences. It enables researchers to build,
run, share, and repeat their own complex computational analyses using
only a web browser and without having to first learn system
administration and command line interfaces.

The Galaxy Project is driven by a vibrant community who publish
workflows and analyses, wrap new tools, maintain and enhance the
source code, provide support, and write documentation and training
materials. Galaxy is open-source and freely available, and is deployed
in hundreds of organizations, running on everything from laptops
through supercomputers to public and private clouds. Over 150 of these
platforms are publicly available and can be used with little or no
setup.  Thousands of tools have been ported to Galaxy ("wrapped") and
are deployable from the Galaxy Tool Shed. Galaxy was developed to
support life science research, but the software is domain agnostic and
is now used in domains as diverse as natural language processing,
constructive solid geometry, and social science.

We hope to see you in Freiburg!
