Announcement - new shared training material and technologies for training!
by Björn Grüning 09 Sep '16

09 Sep '16

Dear training enthusiast, We have started to work on an unification of the Galaxy training material as discussed during the GCC 2016. As a first example we have chosen our Exome-Seq tutorial and have ported it over to give a real world example of how we imagine the next generation of Galaxy training looks like. Look by yourself: https://github.com/bgruening/training-material/tree/master/Exome-Seq A few highlights: * Slides are written in reveal.js With this we can create slides in Markdown, which is convenient to write and to share/improve with GitHub. PDFs can be automatically generated and we plan to do this automatically via Travis CI. Moreover these slides can be viewed with every Web browser, so you can watch them while you are exploring our training material, without downloading anything. An example can be found here: http://bgruening.github.io/training-material/Exome-Seq/slides/index.html A reveal.js template is available (http://bgruening.github.io/training-material/shared/slide_template/index.ht…) to get started, with on the first slide the GTN logo and some instructions how to use the presentation. * Docker container for the training We want to make Galaxy training scale. This means every trainer should be able to get a training instance with all tools, reference datasets, example input datasets up and running in minutes. For this, every training will have a versioned Docker container which can be easily deployed on clusters, clouds or laptops. Naturally, these training instances are available for everyone at any time, so they can used by the trained people to redo the workshop and then consolidate the learned techniques. * Galaxy tours! Every training should offer an interactive Galaxy tour. This is especially useful if someone wants to train herself. The interactive Galaxy tour will be in the Docker container. Hence someone using the Docker container can start the interactive tour and follows interactively the instructions. * Persistence and citability of the training data All the training data on which your training is based should be persistent and citable. For this we recommend to upload the datasets on Zenodo (in Galaxy training network community). A DOI associated to these datasets will be generated. The datasets can then be downloaded into the Docker container and reused everywhere. * Landing page An initial landing page is generated automatically from the general README file: http://bgruening.github.io/training-material Some broader plans we have and we need your comments and help! * We would like (and we started) to migrate the other training material in a similar fashion than the Exom-Seq. To get an idea of the current and needed work, check the open PRs on https://github.com/bgruening/training-material/ * We are planning a contribution-fest to consolidate our training material and improve the overall training experience in Galaxy on the 6.-7th October 2016! We will send an invitation to GOBELT and see if someone from them are also interested. * We would like to have the material for RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq, MethylC-Seq and Genome Annotation updated by the end of this year. * We would like to write about this effort a small manuscript to attract more people and to announce the new capabilities of Galaxy training (tours, self-containing training with Docker …). We will keep a ToDo and discussion list on GitHub under the following URL: https://github.com/bgruening/training-material/issues Please contribute to these discussions and help make Galaxy training outstanding in Bioinformatics! Please let us know what you think! Bérénice and Bjoern P.S. If you want to share this news, please take this link: https://gist.github.com/bgruening/a54a8600c5cddca82424ad13569708c3

by Dave Clements 06 Sep '16

06 Sep '16

Hello all, This is a request to please help get the word out about the upcoming Galaxy Admin Training event in Salt Lake. Please consider forwarding this announcement to any individuals or groups that might be interested. Thanks, Dave C. The Galaxy Admin Training workshop <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/AdminTraining2016> will be held November 7-11 in Salt Lake City, Utah, the week before Supercomputing’16 <http://sc16.supercomputing.org/> also meets in Salt Lake. The workshop offers Basic <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/AdminTraining2016/BasicsSession> and Advanced <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/AdminTraining2016/AdvancedSession> sessions. Galaxy <https://galaxyproject.org/> is an open web based platform for biomedical data integration and analysis. It is deployed at large and small organizations around the world and used in a broad range of biomedical research domains, and across the tree of life. Galaxy enables life science researchers to perform their own data analysis without having to learn command line interfaces or Linux package management. Galaxy transparently records all analysis steps and eases workflow reuse and sharing. If your organization is looking for how to empower your researchers, then please consider attending one or both sessions. 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. Registration <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/AdminTraining2016/Registration> is now open, but space is limited. *Early registration ends September 19*. Participants can register for one or both sessions. Please review each session’s prerequisites before registering. Galaxy Admin Training 2016 is hosted by the University of Utah Center for High Performance Computing (CHPC) <http://www.chpc.utah.edu/>, the Department of Biomedical Informatics <http://medicine.utah.edu/dbmi/> and the Clinical & Translational Science Biomedical Informatics Core (CCTS BMIC) <http://medicine.utah.edu/ccts/bmic/> at the University of Utah <http://utah.edu/>. We hope to see you in Salt Lake! The Galaxy Team PS: Please share this flier <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/AdminTraining2016/Publicity> with any individuals or groups who might be interested in this event. -- http://galaxyproject.org/ http://getgalaxy.org/ http://usegalaxy.org/ https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/

Fwd: Help @ the GOBLET booth @ ISMB
by Dave Clements 05 Jul '16

05 Jul '16

Hello all, If you are going to be at ISMB, GOBLET is looking for people to be at the booth. Thanks, Dave C ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Fran Lewitter <lewitter(a)iscb.org> Date: Tue, Jul 5, 2016 at 3:59 PM Subject: Re: Help @ the GOBLET booth @ ISMB To: members(a)mygoblet.org Hi, As many of you know, we will have a booth at ISMB 2016. If you are attending ISMB, please stop by to see us. We still have a few slots open for staffing the booth and to answer questions of those who stop by. Most slots are taken but there are a few left. If you have not yet signed up, please add your name to the Doodle poll (http://doodle.com/poll/wx4bebtgbpzpe7wp) if you are available to help. A few comments - Only 2 people can sign up for a time slot. The most important time for coverage is the opening reception, poster sessions and coffee breaks. Sunday night will be difficult because the poster session overlaps with the ISCB Education Committee meeting. Also, Monday night is the Education poster session, so that's a tough time for coverage as well. Note that the full conference schedule and a mobile app are now available from https://www.iscb.org/ismb2016. Thanks for signing up! Looking forward to seeing you at ISMB.

Hello all, Forwarding from the GOBLET list. Dave C ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Cath Brooksbank <cath(a)ebi.ac.uk> Date: Thu, Jun 2, 2016 at 7:57 AM Subject: last chance to register for Lifelong Learning in the Biomedical sciences To: ritrain-all(a)lists.bbmri-eric.eu, "corbel-training(a)lists.bbmri-eric.eu" < corbel-training(a)lists.bbmri-eric.eu>, " training-coordinators(a)elixir-europe.org" < training-coordinators(a)elixir-europe.org>, "all(a)mygoblet.org" < all(a)mygoblet.org>, "bioexcel-all(a)pdc.kth.se" <bioexcel-all(a)pdc.kth.se> Dear all With apologies for the inevitable duplication caused by posting to multiple lists, the abstract submission and registration deadlines for our exciting new conference, 'Lifelong Learning in the Biomedical Sciences' , *will close on 6 June 2016*. Please register now to avoid disappointment. We'd also be immensely grateful if you could help to spread the word around your own networks. Many thanks in advance for your help! Best Cath ---------------------------------------- We all know that competent scientists, who are committed to staying at the leading edge of developments in their field and constantly improving their professional skills, are the underlying foundation of successful research and development; yet research infrastructures and other research organisations invest comparatively little time in developing their staff. On behalf of the organising committee I am writing to cordially invite you to attend the EMBL Conference on *Lifelong Learning in the Biomedical Sciences*. This conference is a new international forum to bring together the key influencers, policymakers, trainers and stakeholders from academia, industry and the professional bodies who will shape and implement how career-long continuing professional development is managed in the future. It will encompass career-long continuing professional development for both the academic and industry sectors. The conference will take place in Heidelberg, Germany on 5-7 July 2016 ( www.embl.de/training/events/2016/LLL16-01) Participating in this conference will provide you with: - insight in the latest developments in education and training for biomedical professionals - an introduction to competency profiles as effective means to support recruitment and retention of key staff - means to empower your staff to manage their own continuing professional development (CPD) - opportunities to network with others with a passion for education and training in the biomedical sciences - a choice of interactive workshops to assist delegates to implement continuing professional development practices in their organisations or contribute to further discussions of conference topics We invite you to submit your abstract and/or workshop proposal by *6 June 2016*. General registration is also open until *6 June 2016*. We are looking forward to your registration and to seeing you in Heidelberg! Best regards Cath On behalf of the Organising Committee -- http://galaxyproject.org/ http://getgalaxy.org/ http://usegalaxy.org/ https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/
