Dear all, This year's RDKit User Group Meeting will take place from 25-27 September in Hamburg, Germany and is being hosted by Emanuel Ehmki at the University of Hamburg.
Registration for the RDKit UGM is free: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/8th-rdkit-ugm-2019-tickets-58836131453 We will once again mostly stick to what has become a tried and true format: Days 1 and 2: Talks, lightning talks, roundtable(s), discussion, poster sessions, and talktorials. For those who haven’t attended before, talktorials are somewhere between a talk and a tutorial, they cover something interesting done with the RDKit and include the code used to do the work. During the presentation you'll give an overview of what you did and also show the pieces of the code that are central to the work. The idea is to mix the science up with the tutorial aspects. Day 3 will be a hackathon: those who choose to stay will spend an intense day working in small groups to produce useful artifacts: new bits of code, KNIME nodes, KNIME workflows, tutorials, documentation, Jupyter notebooks, etc. We will once again try to structure this a bit by collecting a bunch of ideas for things to work on in advance. In the past we have also done extended tutorials on Day 3; if there are volunteers to do tutorials and people interested in attending them, we'll repeat that this year as well. Like last year there will be an optional training day on Tuesday (the 24th). Daria Goldmann (KNIME) will offer a course on KNIME and the RDKit. We hope to also be able to offer an RDKit and Python course, but we're still finalizing the details on that. Space for both of these is limited, so we'll do separate registrations for them. We will send around registration links once we've got the logistics figured out. There will also be, of course, social activities. We will be announcing more details about these later. A more detailed announcement with additional information about place, hotels and logistics will follow soon. We are looking for people who are willing to do presentations, talktorials or posters on the first two days. If you're interested in contributing, please send Greg and Emanuel an email. Lighting talks don't need to be arranged too far in advance; we will start collecting the list of people interested in doing those shortly before the event. Best Regards, Greg and Emanuel
