Galaxy Community Conference 2021
by Kim DE RUYCK 23 Apr '21

23 Apr '21

Dear, Having originally been planned to take place in Ghent, the 2021 Galaxy Community Conference will take place in a virtual format from 28 June to 10 July and bring together clinicians, researchers and students working in data science. The event features a training week (28 June - 2 July) , three days of conference (6-8 July) and concludes with a 2-days CollaborationFest (9-10 July) . All training sessions are pre-recorded and online support will be available. The conference days will include talks with live Q&A, posters, demos, birds-of-a-feather and social gatherings. The multi-day CoFest gives the opportunity to get involved and to improve the Galaxy ecosystem. As in previous editions, talks and poster presentations will be selected upon abstract submission. We welcome submissions that use, implement or extend the Galaxy platform and ecosystem, including integrating and analyzing datasets in any research area, enhancing reproducibility in computational analyses, and fostering collaboration in scientific workflow development. Both the [ https://www.vibconferences.be/events/gcc2021-virtual-edition | abstract submission ] (deadline 7 May) and [ https://www.vibconferences.be/events/gcc2021-virtual-edition | registration ] are open. If you are working in data intensive science (life sciences and beyond), GCC2021 is an ideal conference to share your work, learn from others, and find new collaborators. We look forward to meeting you there!

Workshop: Containers & Workflow pipelines
by Tuur Muyldermans 16 Apr '21

16 Apr '21

Hi everyone, On Thursday 20 and Thursday 27 May 2020 ELIXIR Belgium and VIB are organizing an online workshop 'Containers and Workflow Pipelines for reproducible and automated data analysis<https://training.vib.be/all-trainings/containers-and-workflow-pipelines-rep…>'. The first day is dedicated to Containers (Docker & Singularity) which are great tools for code portability and analysis reproducibility. You will learn how to use and modify existing containers and build a container from scratch. On the second day, you will learn how to use Nextflow (DSL2) for building scalable and reproducible bioinformatics pipelines and running them on a personal computer, cluster and cloud. With the rising interest in these topics, we hope this might be of interest to you. We start from scratch, however expect prior bioinformatics & programming knowledge. The full program is online and last tickets are available via this link<https://training.vib.be/all-trainings/containers-and-workflow-pipelines-rep…>.

13 Apr '21

We are looking for an enthusiastic bioinformatics PhD candidate for a project on new detection strategies and analyses of plant quarantine organisms (q-organisms) based on a pan-genome approach. Research includes the development of machine-learning methodology on pan-genome graphs, to identify important features associated to pathogenicity or host specificity for instance, and visualizations to support genome analyses and outbreak management. This project is a collaboration between Wageningen Research Biointeractions and Plant Health and the Wageningen University Bioinformatics Group. The PhD student will also work with experts from the National Plant Protection organization (NPPO-NL) and industrial partners. Candidates should hold an MSc degree in bioinformatics, computer science (with a demonstrable affinity for biology) or related area. We are specifically seeking a candidate with a strong background in algorithm development and machine learning, and demonstrable skills in mathematics and statistics. Good organisational skills, enthusiasm for working in an interdisciplinary team and an interest in bringing bioinformatics to real-world application are important characteristics as well. Additional information about the position can be found at https://www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/PhD-student-Pangenome-mining-for-quarantine-o….
