Hi All, in case you were wondering, this #UseGalaxy tweet went out 12 hours too early. I apologize for any confusion. And I would like to say this is the last time I will mess up times, but….
GCC2021 actually starts in about an hour and 45 minutes. I hope to see you there
The 2021 Galaxy Community Conference (GCC2021) starts in 30 minutes. This 3-day meeting is the annual gathering of the #UseGalaxy community. Welcome to GCC!!! gcc2021.sched.com/

it's that time of the month again: we have updated and further expanded our list of funding opportunities for early-career faculty.
We have found 539 funding opportunities in all fields of research.
This database is free, downloadable, searchable: research.jhu.edu/rdt/funding…
