*The deadline for submitting oral presentation abstracts for the 2017
Galaxy Community Conference <https://gcc2017.sciencesconf.org/> has been
extended to 29 April.* If you work in data intensive life science research
then GCC2017 is an ideal opportunity to present your work. Posters and
computer demonstration submission closes on 27 May and the lightning talk
submission deadline is 23 June.

The 2017 Galaxy Community Conference will bring together several hundred
researchers working in and supporting data intensive life science research.
There is no better place to share your work and learn from others that are
addressing diverse questions and facing common challenges in data intensive
biology. GCC participants work across the tree of life, come from around
the world, and represent universities, research organizations, industry,
medical schools and research hospitals.

GCC2017 will be in Montpellier, France, 26-30 June and will feature two
days of presentations, discussions, poster sessions, lightning talks,
computer demos, keynotes, and birds-of-a-feather meetups, all about
data-intensive biology and the tools that support it. GCC2017 also
includes data
and coding hackathons <https://gcc2017.sciencesconf.org/page/hackathon>,
and two days of training
<https://gcc2017.sched.com/overview/type/Training> covering
16 different topics.  GCC2017 will be held at Le Corum Conference Centre
<http://www.montpellier-events.com/en/The-Corum/Presentation> in the heart
of Montpellier <https://gcc2017.sciencesconf.org/resource/page/id/2>, just
10km from the Mediterranean.

Early registration <https://gcc2017.sciencesconf.org/resource/page/id/6> is
now open and starts at less than 55€ / day for post-docs and students. You
can also book low cost conference housing when you register. Travel
fellowships are being offered by the Galaxy Community Fund for early career
researchers that are travelling from afar.
