Hello all, We are pleased to announce that early registration for the 2012 Galaxy Community Conference (GCC2012, http://galaxyproject.org/GCC2012) is now open. GCC2012 will be held July 25-27, at the UIC Forum, in Chicago, Illinois. The conference will feature two full days of presentations, discussions, lightning talks, and breakouts. We have also added a new full day of training this year, featuring 3 parallel tracks with four workshops each, covering seven different topics.
The Galaxy Community Conference is for: * Sequencing core facility staff * Bioinformatics core staff * Bioinformatics tool and workflow developers * Bioinformatics focused principal investigators and researchers * Data producers * Power bioinformatics users This event is about integrating, analyzing, and sharing the diverse and very large datasets that are now typical in biomedical research. GCC2012 is an opportunity to share best practices with, and learn from, a large community of researchers and support staff who are facing the challenges of data-intensive biology. Galaxy is an open web-based platform for data intensive biomedical research (http://galaxyproject.org) that is widely used and deployed at research organizations of all sizes and around the world. Registration is very affordable, especially for post-docs and students. You can can save an additional 40% by registering on or before June 11. Conference lodging can also be booked. Low-cost rooms have been reserved on the UIC campus. You can also stay at the official conference hotel, at a substantial discount arranged for conference attendees. There are a limited rooms available in both, and you are encouraged to register early, if you would like to take advantage of these. Abstract submission is also open, from now through April 16. Abstract submissions on any topic of interest to the Galaxy community are strongly encouraged. See the Abstracts page for details.
