Hi all; There are some upcoming coding events and conferences of interest to open source biology programmers:
- BOSC/Broad Interoperability Hackathon -- This is a two day coding session at the Broad Institute in Cambridge, MA on April 7-8 focused on improving tool interoperability. Sign up and details: http://j.mp/XJT6ew - SciPy 2013 -- The Scientific Python conference is June 26-27 in Austin and has a Bioinformatics mini-symposia this year. They're doing some great work like IPython, NumPy, SciPy and scikit-learn; and this is a nice opportunity to reach a new set of like minded programmers and expand the open source bioinformatics community. Bioinformatics mini-symposia: http://j.mp/Z4xxXB Abstract details: http://conference.scipy.org/scipy2013/about.php - Codefest at the Bioinformatics Open Source Conference -- This year BOSC is taking place in Berlin from July 19-20 and we'll have a two day coding session before the conference. This is the 4th year of Codefests and they've proven to be a productive and fun time to work collectively on open source projects.
