Hello all,
We are pleased to announce the *2011 Galaxy Community Conference*,
being
held *May 25-26 in Lunteren, The Netherlands*. The meeting will
feature two
full days of presentations and discussion on extending Galaxy to use
new
tools and data sources, deploying Galaxy at your organization, and
best
practices for using Galaxy to further your own and your community's
research.

*
*Overview
*This event aims to engage a broader community of developers, data
producers, tool creators, and core facility and other research hub
staff to
become an active part of the Galaxy community. We'll cover defining
resources in the Galaxy framework, increasing their visibility and
making
them easier to use and integrate with other resources, how to extend
Galaxy
to use custom data sources and custom tools, and best practices for
using
Galaxy in your organization.
Additional topics include, but are not limited to:
* Talks submitted by the Galaxy community
* Integration of tools (including NGS analysis tools) and distributed
job
management
* Deployment of 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
* Visualizing Data without leaving Galaxy
* Performing reproducible research
* Performing and sharing complex analyses with Workflows
* An "Introduction to Galaxy" session, offered on May 24, for Galaxy
newcomers.
*Registration
*The conference fee is 100 on or before April 24, and 120 after
that. The
meeting is being held at the Conference Centre De Werelt in Lunteren,
The
Netherlands, which is also the conference hotel. You are encouraged
to
register early, as space at the hotel (and at the "Intro to Galaxy"
session)
is limited and is likely to fill up before the conference itself does.
