ELIXIR are looking for additional members of the Editorial Board for the ELIXIR F1000R Channel to help with reviewing submissions to the channel and to ELIXIR tracks at ECCB and other conferences. Volunteers from among ELIXIR Heads of Nodes, please contact premysl.velek@elixir-europe.org.
The ELIXIR Interoperability Platform will be funding a Biohackathon event in November or December 2018. All Nodes are being given the opportunity to host this significant event. A Node selection process is being opened; to apply please contact Jerry Lanfear who will provide more information, including details on how to submit an application. The final deadline for applications is 5 January 2018.
Applications are being taken by the Data Platform for the second round of Core Data Resource selection - from 1 December 2017 - 17 January 2018. One representative - Head of Node or Deputy Head of Node - from each node is needed for the Consensus Ranking meeting on 9 May 2018. This will be a full day meeting and will take place at Schiphol airport. The format will follow that established for the first round of Core Data Resource selection. Please mark your diaries with the date now.
For information
The Agenda and documents for the HoN December TC on 5th December have been distributed by the ELIXIR Director. The items for discussion include the first draft of the ELIXIR 2019-23 Programme. Any feedback on the draft Programme must come via the HoN at this point. We have also included an overview of the results from the survey on Node priorities into the meeting folder.
