Hub updates
Thank you to everyone who joined us in Barcelona last week for the ELIXIR All Hands meeting. Slides and photos are already online.
Slides and posters from the meeting will also been made available via the ELIXIR channel on the F1000 Research publication platform.
Representatives from the ELIXIR Hub will present an update on the BioSchemas project as part of the ELIXIR Webinar Series this Wednesday 16 March, 15:00 CET. Join the webinar here.
ELIXIR will be the main organising sponsor of the 15th European Conference on Computational Biology (ECCB), to take place on 3-7 September 2016 in The Hague, the Netherlands. The programme of the conference will feature a dedicated track to showcase ELIXIR activities. The talks in the ELIXIR track will be selected through an open call, together with the general ECCB 2016 call. The deadline for submissions is 29 March 2016.
Registration is now open for the next ELIXIR Innovation and SME Forum: Data-driven innovation in the aquaculture and marine industries. The event will take place in Oslo, Norway, on 12-13 May 2016. Please share this information with your industry contacts.
ELIXIR is presented as Landmark in the 2016 ESFRI roadmap lanched last week in Amsterdam.
