Hello potential GCC2017 Attendees! The 2017 Galaxy Community Conference (GCC2017) <https://gcc2017.sciencesconf.org/> will be held 26-30 June, in Montpellier, France. GCC2017 training <https://gcc2017.sciencesconf.org/> will be held 27-28 June. *We need your vote to determine what to offer at GCC2017 training.* If there is even a remote chance that you will attend GCC2017 (it's in the South of France; it will be summer; don't let that influence your decision), then *please vote on which of the **34 nominated topics you would like to see offered at GCC2017.* *Vote Now! <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdpkLoRuCGZOO3_T6dgRwFeDxVjb_zW-tl…>* 27 June will be single track and focus on how to use Galaxy for research. 28 June will have multiple tracks, and offer the full spectrum of Galaxy training. Vote for as many topics as you like, but please note that the more topics you vote for, the less your vote for each single topic will count. *Voting closes on 8 February.* Once that happens the organisers will scramble to confirm instructors and set a schedule.

Galaxy Australasia Meeting Update: Register now, Poster Abstracts, Training
by Dave Clements 11 Jan '17

11 Jan '17

Hello all, The Galaxy Australasia Meeting <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/> will bring together biomedical researchers, bioinformaticians, infrastructure providers, and data producers from across Australia and Asia. GAMe 2017 will be held 3-9 February at the University of Melbourne, in Melbourne, Australia. The schedule of events is: 3 Feb Friday: Researcher Training Day <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/training-day/>: 4 Feb Saturday: Conference Day 1: BIO Day <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/conference/#bio> 5 Feb Sunday: Conference Day 2: INFO Day <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/conference/#info> 6-9 Feb Mon-Thu: Galaxy Administrator Training <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/training-for-admin-workshop/> You can register <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/registration/> to attend any combination of these events. (Details on each event are below.) *The Conference is still accepting poster submissions <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/abstracts/>.* This is a great opportunity to share your work with other researchers facing the challenges of data intensive biology. *On-time registration <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/registration/> ends 27 January*, and registering now avoids the ~ 80% cost increase for late registrations. (Some training sessions may sell out before then, so you are encouraged to register sooner rather than later.) This is a rare opportunity for the data intensive life science research community to gather, and is the first large multi-day Galaxy event to be offered outside of Europe and North America. You are encouraged to join your fellow researchers in sunny and summery Melbourne this February. Thanks, Dave C PS: And please help spread the word by sharing and posting the attached announcement or this email. Follow us: #GAMe_2017, @GalaxyAustralia ---- *Researcher Training Day <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/training-day/>, 3 February Friday* Researcher Training Day targets life scientists working with Next-Generation Sequencing data, in particular RNA-Seq, RAD-Seq, and microbial genomes. Session instructors are experienced researchers and trainers and are prominent members of both the Galaxy and Australian training communities. If you want to learn how to do NGS analysis without also having to become a systems admin, then this is the event for you. *Conference Day 1: BIO Day <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/conference/#bio>, 4 February Saturday* *Conference Day 2: INFO Day <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/conference/#info>, 5 February Sunday* The two day conference is split into BIO and INFO days. Both days will feature keynotes by prominent community members <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/conference/#keynotespeakers> James Taylor and Björn Grüning, as well as accepted and invited talks, posters, panels, and birds-of-a-feather and other networking opportunities. Speakers from Australia, Japan, India, the United States, Germany, and Canada are on the program. If you are performing, enabling or supporting data-intensive biology then this meeting will be time well spent. *Galaxy Administrator Training <https://www.embl-abr.org.au/game2017/training-for-admin-workshop/>, 6-9 February Monday-Thursday* This 4-day workshop will be intensive and hands-on, and taught by experienced instructors from the Genomics Virtual Lab, Galaxy Project, and Galaxy Freiburg teams. Participants will learn how to install, configure, customize, and extend their own Galaxy servers. Topics include tool configuration, authentication and user management, using heterogeneous storage and compute services, and many other topics that will enable you to get your own Galaxy server up and running, performing well, and used by your community. This is only the second time this workshop has been offered. -- http://galaxyproject.org/ http://getgalaxy.org/ http://usegalaxy.org/ https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/
