GCC2015 is an opportunity to meet with 200+ others working at the forefront data-intensive biomedical research. The 2015 edition of GCC includes more than ever before (http://gcc2015.tsl.ac.uk/programme/): - Coding and Data Wrangling Hackathons (and a colocated BioJS Hackathon too) - Two days of training offering 18 sessions on 15 topics in up to 5 parallel tracks, covering topics ranging from analysis to administration to tool development. - A two day meeting featuring accepted talks, poster presentations, keynote talks, vendor exhibits, lightning talks, birds-of-a-feather meetups, and plenty of networking. Early registration is now open (but closes Friday, 22 May, *which is this Friday)*. Registering early saves you 40%. Registering now ensures you'll get a spot in the hackathon and training sessions of your choice. Galaxy is a data integration and analysis platform for the life sciences. It is an open source project and is available for free on the web, for local, and installs, and on cloud infrastructures. It is deployed around the world, and used for research across the tree of life. See http://galaxyproject.org/ for more. Finally, there are also many other events going on before and after GCC2015, and GCC itself ends right before ISMB / ECCB starts in Dublin. See https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/News/NearGCC2015 for a complete list. Hope to see you in Norwich!
