As a result, many research institutes, ranging from UMCs, universities and research oriented companies are setting up ‘bioinformatics facilities’ that are aimed at delivering state-of-the-art bioinformatics services, consultancy on data management and stewardship, education, HPC coordination, and more. In this meeting we would like to establish a dialogue among the bioinformaticians that are involved in setting up and/or managing a bioinformatics facility in order to learn from each other what the best practices are and pitfalls that should be avoided. We will discuss concrete examples on what data analyses to offer and how to run them efficiently. An important goal of the meeting is to ensure we do not all develop different approaches to Data Stewardship and do not waste time re-inventing wheels.</p><p class="gmail-m_622677728221075873gmail-m_-4287505244071324391gmail-p1">The Netherlands has one of the strongest bioinformatics communities in the world.
