Webinar mode for GCC2022 - Registration open
by Beatriz Serrano-Solano 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

Dear all, As you may know, the Galaxy Community Conference (GCC2022) will take place in Minnesota this year. For those that won't attend in person, the GCC Organizing Committee is happy to *announce a virtual webinar-like option*. How can you register? * There is a special *Virtual* option in the registration form <https://galaxyproject.org/events/gcc2022/register> for online only. * Once you are registered and a few days before the conference, you'll receive all the information you need, including: - an invitation to join the GCC2022 Slack space, - a link to a zoom webinar. Is it going to be interactive? There will be a Meeting Owl <https://owllabs.com/> on-site that will show you the room. In the webinar mode, you will have the chance to: * Watch the presentations live (remember the time difference!). * Ask questions. The chat and Q&A functionality will be enabled. There will be someone online in close contact with the moderator in the room. * If there's no time for more questions, you can always post them in the Slack channel. Will you be able to attend the poster session? Partially. The authors will deposit their posters in Sched <https://gcc2022.sched.com/>, and you'll have the chance to ask questions in Slack using the channel *gcc2022-posters-demo*. Their response may be slow, depending on how busy the poster presenters are in real life. How much will the virtual attendance cost? - Regular online registration: $80. - $10 for Low-Income-Countries (check this list <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PW11lByYd61cIT7wPnGmTQpd9kM79EXX/view> to find out which countries qualify as such). When is the deadline for registration? - July 15. Thank you all for all the interest that you've been showing to join GCC2022, regardless of the format. That's great to see! Cheers, Beatriz on behalf of the GCC2022 Organizing Committee

You knew this right? PPS: We moved these dates back because a particularly bad interaction between the (spiffy!) MailChimp service we have been using for GCC2022, and Galaxy's (only semi-functional!) MailMan3 server caused no email to be delivered to several mailing lists since the end of April. So, now is your chance. Please do register by Wednesday. -- My last day with Galaxy was December 17, 2021 . After that I will be the Anaconda <https://www.anaconda.com/> open source community manager. If you need to reach Galaxy Outreach after December 17, please send your email to outreach(a)galaxyproject.org.

Since 2000, BOSC has provided a forum for developers and users to interact and share research results and ideas in open source bioinformatics and open science. BOSC’s broad spectrum of topics includes practical techniques for solving bioinformatics problems; software development practices; standards and ontologies; approaches that promote open science and sharing of data, results and software; and ways to grow open source communities while promoting diversity within them. As usual, BOSC will include keynote talks, longer and shorter (lightning) talks from submitted abstracts, posters, Birds of a Feather, and more! New this year: Joint session with Bio-Ontologies <https://www.open-bio.org/2022/03/03/bosc-and-bio-ontologies-joint-session/> ! We are excited to announce that BOSC and Bio-Ontologies <https://www.bio-ontologies.org.uk/ismb-annual-meeting> will join forces for part of a day at ISMB 2022. The joint session will feature keynote speaker Melissa Haendel as well as talks chosen from abstracts submitted to BOSC or Bio-Ontologies. Keynote Speakers <https://open-bio.org/events/bosc-2022/bosc-2022-keynotes> Melissa Haendel is the Chief Research Informatics Officer at University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, and Director of the Center for Data to Health (CD2H). With expertise in molecular genetics and developmental biology as well as translational informatics, Dr. Haendel focuses on open science and data integration to improve rare-disease diagnosis and mechanism discovery. She is a leader in ontologies and standards for data sharing. Lior Pachter is the Bren professor of computational biology at Caltech. He is a Fellow of the International Society of Computational Biology <https://www.iscb.org/iscb-fellows> and has been awarded a National Science Foundation CAREER award, a Sloan Research Fellowship His research interests span the mathematical and biological sciences, including algorithms, combinatorics, comparative genomics, algebraic statistics, molecular biology and evolution. Dr. Pachter is known as a vociferous advocate of open and accountable science. A third keynote speaker will be announced soon! Abstract submission We encourage you to submit abstracts <https://www.open-bio.org/events/bosc-2022/submit/> (due April 21 – sorry, no extensions) on any topic relevant to open source bioinformatics or open science. After review, some abstracts will be selected for lightning talks, longer talks, or posters. Abstracts that are not chosen for talks will automatically be considered for posters. Abstract submission will be via ISMB’s EasyChair. Note that ISMB/ECCB requires a short (200-word) text-only abstract for all submissions (talk or poster), plus a “long abstract” (PDF, 2 pages max) if you want to be considered for a talk. A second, later round of submissions will end May 19. Abstracts submitted in the late round will be considered only for posters and a limited number of “late-breaking lightning talk” slots; they are not eligible for longer talks. Registration fee assistance We realize that the cost of ISMB may be prohibitive for some. If you are submitting an abstract to BOSC and would have difficulty covering the cost of registration, you can request a registration fee waiver right on the abstract submission form (which will not be seen by reviewers). Those who are not submitting abstracts can apply for an OBF Event Fellowship <https://www.open-bio.org/event-awards/> (deadline April 1, 2022). BOSC topics include (but are not limited to): - Ontologies: Open Source Tools and Approaches (new this year – joint session with Bio-Ontologies COSI <http://www.bio-ontologies.org.uk/>) - Open Science and Reproducible Research - Open Biomedical Data - Citizen/Participatory Science - Standards and Interoperability - Data Science - Workflows - Open Approaches to Translational Bioinformatics - Open Science for Global Health - Developer Tools and Libraries - Inclusion, Outreach and Training - Bioinformatics Open Source Project Reports (about new or existing projects) - Open and interoperable ontologies (joint session with Bio-Ontologies <https://www.open-bio.org/2022/03/03/bosc-and-bio-ontologies-joint-session/> ) We look forward to reading your abstract and seeing you (in person or virtually) at BOSC 2022! Sincerely, BOSC 2022 Organizing Committee: Nomi Harris, Karsten Hokamp, Hervé Ménager, Monica Munoz-Torres, Deepak Unni, Nicole Vasilevsky, Jason Williams

Release of Galaxy 22.01
by Marius van den Beek 15 Mar '22

15 Mar '22

Dear Community, The Galaxy Committers team is pleased to announce the release of Galaxy 22.01. - Developer and admin release announcement <https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/releases/22.01_announce.html>. - User release announcement <https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/releases/22.01_announce_user.html> . A few release highlights are: New Colour Selector Do you use tools which require colour inputs, like Circos? Previously, we had a very restricted colour input which gave you a very limited palette. Now, you have complete freedom of choice with the modern colour selector. Improved File Export If you've been exporting files from Galaxy lately, you've probably seen the amazing new remote file source export, which allows you to export files to FTP, Dropbox, and other locations. Improved File Uploads Previously, Galaxy servers used a variety of methods to let you upload large files easily, including some servers which required FTP for large files. We have replaced this with a new upload method, which will be enabled on all usegalaxy servers soon. This will make file uploads significantly smoother, and will be more tolerant of network failures and interruptions! You do not need to make any changes. Beta History: Collection Improvements If you've been trying out the beta history (which will be the default history in the next release!), it has been updated to indicate whether collections are homogeneous or heterogeneous. This will help you see more easily if you've accidentally included an incorrect dataset. Galaxy starts as a FastAPI application by default Starting Galaxy via run.sh will use the new gravity process manager <https://github.com/galaxyproject/gravity>. The new configuration uses Gunicorn <https://gunicorn.org/> and FastAPI <https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/> to drive Galaxy's web process, and starts job handler and Celery <https://docs.celeryproject.org/> processes automatically. For more details and instructions, please consult the Migrating to Gunicorn documentation <https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/latest/admin/migrating_to_gunicorn>. User Preferences can be encrypted in Galaxy Vault Galaxy can now be configured to store secrets in an external vault, which is useful for secure handling and centralization of secrets management. In particular, information fields in the "Manage information" section of the user profile, such as dropbox keys, can be configured to be encrypted at rest in a vault (Hashicorp, Custos or database) instead of being stored as plain text in the user preferences table. For detailed information on configuration, refer to the vault section <https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/release_22.01/admin/special_topics/vault.…> of the admin documentation. Release Notes Please see the full release notes <https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/latest/releases/22.01_announce.html> for a lot more details and instructions for upgrading your Galaxy installation. Thanks for using Galaxy!
