Hi all,
Join us for a one-day hackathon focused on integrating, refining, and FAIRifying microbial data analysis Galaxy workflows within the Intergalactic Workflow Commission (IWC), enhancing their accessibility and reusability for the microbiology community.

Objectives
The primary goal of this hackathon is to prepare, integrate, and FAIRify microbial data analysis Galaxy workflows within the Intergalactic Workflow Commission (IWC), ensuring they adhere to best practices for accessibility, interoperability, and reusability across the bioinformatics community. IWC acts as a central hub for Galaxy workflows, automatically listing them in major registries like Dockstore and WorkflowHub, while ensuring workflows are rigorously reviewed, tested, and updated with every new Galaxy release. Versioning, tool updates, and essential metadata enhance the findability and usability of each workflow.
In short, the objectives of this hackathon are to:
Annotate and apply best practices to microbial data analysis Galaxy workflows for consistency and reusability
Implement robust tests to ensure workflow reliability and accuracy
Successfully integrate key microbial data analysis Galaxy workflows into IWC, improving accessibility and usability
Collaborate as a community to refine and improve workflows, ensuring they are peer-reviewed and meet high standards
Make these peer-reviewed workflows accessible to the broader community through the future microGalaxy Lab
This hackathon is open to participants from all communities, so join us to help shape the future of bioinformatics workflows!

Dear microGalaxy Community,
I am currently working on the poster for GCC. We want to print next week
(19th of June).
One thing I wanted to show are highlight workflows.
If you have a *workflow that you think should be highlighted*, please let
me know, or add it directly to the poster (
https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1cUMofj-KfswDyeIl9iq2eLSRifDrcj83LGj…
).
If you have any other comments or suggestions, also feel free to reach out
or add it to the poster as well.
Thank you and all the best,
Paul
