Galaxy Developer Conference 2011, 25-26 May, Lunteren, The Netherlands



Galaxy makes it easy to perform analysis interactively through the web, on arbitrarily large datasets. With hundreds of tools there are few limits on what can be done. Now with NGS analysis workflows (including numerous Illumina-, SOLiD-, and 454-specific tools), trackster browser, and collaborative pages you can do more in the Cloud. Galaxy is distributed under BSD-like license.

The 2nd annual Galaxy Developer Conference is being help 25-26 May, at the Conference Centre De Werelt in Lunteren, The Netherlands.

Goals

The goal of the 2011 Galaxy Developer Conference is to engage a broader community of developers, data producers, and tool creators. We will cover the following aspects of Galaxy framework:

  • The hitchhiker's guide to Galaxy architecture
  • Integration of tools (including NGS analysis tools) and distributed job management
  • Deployment of private Galaxy instances on local resources and on the Cloud
  • Management of large datasets with the Galaxy Library System
  • Using the Galaxy LIMS functionality at NGS sequencing facilities

Should you go?

This meeting will be primarily targeting software engineers, IT professionals, and developers of analysis tools. So, it you are an occasional Perl script writer, this meeting is not for you. However, if you belong to any of categories below, please register ASAP:

  • I write tools for analysis of NGS data
  • I am an IT professional managing a core facility or sequencing center
  • I develop applications for management of very large datasets
  • I write web applications for biologists



The 2011 Galaxy Developers Conference is generously sponsored by the US National Science Foundation and the Netherlands Bioinformatics Center (NBIC).
Galaxy is developed by Galaxy Team and funded by NSF, NHGRI, Penn State, Emory University and the Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences. Galaxy is free for all.
