BioHackathon Europe 2019

ELIXIR unites Europe’s leading life science organisations in managing and safeguarding the increasing volume of data being generated by publicly funded research. It coordinates, integrates and sustains bioinformatics resources across its member states and enables users in academia and industry to access services that are vital for their research.Information captured during registration including gender data is gathered by the ELIXIR Hub in line with ourEqual Opportunities Strategyand only to support our ongoing efforts to address gender balance at every level of our events; committee members, speakers and attendees. All data is anonymised and aggregated. It is stored in a Google Drive repository in line with GDPR requirements.ELIXIR Privacy Statement:https://elixir-europe.org/legal/privacyThe ELIXIR Code of Conducthas been created to ensure that participants at ELIXIR events (including virtual) interact with each other in a mutually respectful environment, with avenues to turn to if they believe there has been a breach of the Code of Conduct.

Following the success of the <A HREF="https://2018.biohackathon-europe.org/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">ELIXIR Biohackathon 2018</A>, and building on the <A HREF="http://www.biohackathon.org/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Biohackathons</A> organised by National Bioscience Database Center (<A HREF="https://biosciencedbc.jp/?lng=en" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">NBDC</A>) and Database Center for Life Science (<A HREF="https://dbcls.rois.ac.jp/index-en.html" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">DBCLS</A>), we are running <A HREF="https://www.biohackathon-europe.org/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Biohackathon 2019</A> again in Paris on 18th-22th Nov 2019. We hope to build on our success and encourage more ELIXIR and non-ELIXIR participants to take part and also have industry engagement.
BioHackathon activities are driven by practical sessions where people gather, discuss, and implement ideas/projects during intensive and productive coding sessions. The topics will be aligned to challenges proposed by ELIXIR platforms (data, tools, compute, interoperability and training), ELIXIR communities (Human Data, Rare Diseases, Marine Metagenomics, Plant Science, Metabolomics and Proteomics), a selection of new tools and communities (e.g., Cytoscape and reproducible networks) proposed by ELIXIR France, and a set of common challenges proposed by the sister <A HREF="http://www.biohackathon.org/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">BioHackathon</A> organised in Japan.
