Hackseq

October 20, 2017 - 8:00 am - October 22, 2017 - 11:00 pm

Interested in participating in Hackseq this year?

The hackathon will be over 3 days (Oct 20-22) at the Life Sciences Institute in UBC. We have already got some amazing projects proposed by team leads and they will be leading small groups (you) to solve their challenging and exciting genomics problem.

Our goal is to bring together a diverse set of individuals to catalyze innovative solutions to today’s biggest genomics problems. Any genomics enthusiast is welcome. Participation is free and we are offering free childcare! All pipelines and tools generated from hackseq will be made publicly available. And of course, there will be plenty of snacks, coffee, food, and night-time socials.

To become a part of this exciting initiative, please fill out a very short application (http://www.hackseq.com/participate) bySeptember 22nd 2017.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions and to share this opportunity with anyone who you think might be interested in participating. You can also join our mailing list (http://www.hackseq.com/mail) to receive updates leading up to the event.
