There is no better place to share your work and learn from others that are addressing diverse questions and facing common challenges in data intensive biology. GCC participants work across the tree of life, around the world, and represent universities, research organizations, industry, medical schools and research hospitals. GCC2017 will be in Montpellier, France, 26-30 June and features two days of presentations, discussions, poster sessions, lightning talks, computer demos, keynotes, and birds-of-a-feather meetups , all about data-intensive biology and the tools that support it. GCC2017 also features data and coding hackathons , and two days of training covering 16 different topics. GCC2017 will be held at Le Corum Conference Centre in the heart of Montpellier , just 10km from the Mediterranean. Registration closes 16 June . Costs start at 75€ per day for postdocs and students. If you work in data intensive life science research then GCC2017 is an ideal opportunity to present your work. Lightning talk and birds-of-a-feather submission are still open, and there is limited space available for late poster and computer demo submissions . About Galaxy Galaxy is an open, web-based platform for data-intensive biomedical analysis used by tens of thousands of researchers around the world.
