DESCRIPTION:Continuing our series of webinars on the topic of open access\,
  during this webinar we will define what open software is\, discuss motiva
 tions and challenges of producing open code and software\, as well as basi
 c concepts that help to do so. \n\nWe will explain the many forms and dim
 ensions of open software and its development\, highlighting the importance
  of documentation\, testing\, packaging\, communication and community in o
 rder to create successful and sustainable software.\n\n**Speakers**\n\nRen
 ato Alves\, Bio-IT EMBL\n\nFollowing a PhD in human bacterial metagenomics
  and metatranscriptomics I took the role of Bio-IT project coordinator at 
 EMBL Heidelberg\, providing computational support to the research communit
 y at EMBL. For over 15 years I have contributed to several open and closed
 -source software projects using a multitude of programming languages and t
 echnologies from web to big data and cloud.\n\nBrice Letcher\, EMBL-EBI\n\
 nI am a 4th year PhD student at the Iqbal lab working in computational mic
 robial genomics. In my PhD I develop an open-source tool to build and geno
 type graphs of genomes. I am passionate about good software engineering an
 d a keen contributor to the bioinformatics community\, notably through bui
 lding a formatting tool for snakemake (workflow manager) files.
