DESCRIPTION:Following the success of the ELIXIR BioHackathon2018 and BioHac
 kathon2019\, and building on the BioHackathons organised by National Biosc
 ience Database Center (NBDC) and Database Center for Life Science (DBCLS)\
 , we bring you the BioHackathon in a virtual fashion. This 9-13 November\,
  we will put online platforms to the test to bring you a fun and productiv
 e event — we will be using Remo &amp\; SLACK!\n\nWe believe the new form
 at will allow everyone to participate in the BioHackathon and deliver tang
 ible outcomes from the selected projects. While the BioHackathon is going 
 virtual\, seats are limited and registration is based on a first-come\, fi
 rst-served basis. We hope to build on our success and encourage more ELIXI
 R and non-ELIXIR participants to take part and also have industry engageme
 nt. Don’t miss your chance to attend this year and register before 18 Se
 ptember 2020.\n\nSCOPE\nBioHackathon activities are driven by practical se
 ssions where people gather\, discuss\, and implement ideas/projects during
  intensive and productive coding sessions. The topics will be aligned to c
 hallenges proposed by ELIXIR platforms (data\, tools\, compute\, interoper
 ability and training)\, ELIXIR communities (Human Data\, Rare Diseases\, M
 arine Metagenomics\, Plant Science\, Metabolomics and Proteomics)\, and a 
 set of common challenges proposed by the sister BioHackathon organised in 
 Japan.\n\nGOALS\n- Advance the development of an open-source infrastructur
 e for data integration to accelerate scientific innovation. We will focus 
 on technology implementations such as FAIR\, identifiers\, metadata standa
 rds\, ontologies and metadata catalogues that support the operations acros
 s ELIXIR platforms (Compute\, Data\, Interoperability\, Tools\, and Traini
 ng)\n- Engage the technical people in the bioinformatics community inside 
 and outside ELIXIR to work together on topics of common interest aligned t
 o ELIXIR activities\n- Strengthen the interactions with ELIXIR platforms a
 nd communities to establish and reinforce collaborations through hands-on 
 programming activities.\n\n\n
