Dear all

After the big success of the “Swiss German Galaxy Tour” in 2014, we are going to organize a similar event again in October this year. This time we meet for two days in Freiburg (Germany):

It is our great pleasure to announce that Dannon Baker, a core developer of the Galaxy team from Johns Hopkins will join us again on both days.

Like last time, the aim is to discuss the status of the Galaxy project, new developments, interface to other systems, extensions and best practice in reproducible research. We also welcome participants who are using other workflow management systems and tool developers who are looking for such systems to offer their tools to a wider audience.

The program is as follows:

Thursday, October 20th: 3rd Swiss Galaxy Workshop. we intend to have a full day of talks from you. We encourage you to design your talk problem-centric and use the experience of other participants to solve them. please provide a preliminary title for a 20-minutes talk or a short presentation, when you register.

Friday, October 21st: 2nd German Galaxy Developer Workshop this day is more on the technical side, with presentation and hands on exercises. please provide suggestion for topics to be covered during this day, when you register.

Registration is now open (space is limited). We recommend you register soon to secure your spot on one or both days of the SG2016Tour:

Looking forward to see many of you in Freiburg

Regards, Bjoern and Hans-Rudolf
