Hello Galaxy India Leadership!
1. You have probably heard that BOSC and GCC and holding a joint event this year. BCC2020 https://bcc2020.github.io/. 2. And you may have heard that we are going online https://bcc2020.github.io/blog/going-virtual instead of in-person. 3. *You will not have heard* that we also going global https://github.com/bcc2020/bcc2020.github.io/blob/worldwide/_posts/2020-04-20-going-global.markdown.
This is a long email, about the *positive* implications of this news for the Indian bioinformatics community
*1. Going Global* We are planning to offer BCC content during reasonable hours in both hemispheres https://bcc2020.sched.com/. For the *meeting* itself we will likely have pre-recorded talks, and live posters, demos and BoFs (details will be tricky. For the *training* before the meeting, we will offer live and sometimes different content in the two hemispheres. For the CoFest we have dreams of it being active 24 hours a day as it rotates around the planet.
And we are requesting your help.
*2. Getting the word out* We will announce registration and the training schedule this week. Once we do that, we need your help spreading the work to the Indian Bioinformatics Community. Registration for BCC is a fraction of the cost https://bcc2020-register.eventbrite.com of a live event, and no travel is required. All people need is a good internet connection. *It also means that Indian researchers will be able to present at BCC.*
*Once we post this (probably in the next 48 hours) then please redistribute wherever you think it would be interesting.*
*3. Training:* We have a few openings in our BCC East Training schedule. Training has to be live, and several instructors from the original live schedule aren't available.
I*f you have an idea for training, or know someone who might, then please have them submit a proposal here https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc-K1Jl8R6U7hNZbKQ4PuYS560E6h_BFQl-mlU-YK77E0goAQ/viewform, ASAP.* Training ideas should complement what is already being offered in the East https://bcc2020.sched.com/venue/East. (We also have some openings in the west https://bcc2020.sched.com/venue/West too, but those times are awful for India.)
*4. CoFest Organizers* Are any of you interested in helping to organize the CoFest events at the end of BCC? Having an organizer in India would move us closer to having CoFest be an around-the-clock event. And we particularly need women on the committee!)
*Please let Simon and I know and we will nominate you to the CoFest org committee.*
-------------
And that's enough for one email.
Cheers, Dave C
Hi Dave
This sounds great!
@Team Galaxy India: I am happy to support and can also pitch in ideas to put together some events.
Let me know what you think.

Hi Dave and the team,
Thank you for the update. It is a wonderful opportunity for everyone to contribute and participate in the BCC2020 online global event. I have gone through the schedule and the talks/sessions, CoFest, BoF lined up for the conference. Definitely, I can help spread the word to universities and the professors here in India and get registrations. While we wait for your next email, I will look for the other areas where I could contribute my time and expertise and coordinate the events in the East region.
Best regards, Glory https://twitter.com/glorybasumata https://www.linkedin.com/in/glorybsm/
