Arts & Crafts BoF
GCC sure can be overwhelming sometimes! This BoF is a quiet place to do some stress free, science related, arts and crafts.
Hack the Universe and Capture the Flag!
Saskia and Eric have also put together a Capture the Flag (CTF) event for GCC2017. Hack the Universe is a completion where you attempt to hack into a Galaxy instance and learn about Galaxy, Galaxy Administration, vulnerabilities, and good security practices. The CTF competition will start on the first night of GCC2017, and run for a week after.
Anyone! We strongly recommend that you form teams involving at least one bioinformatician or biologist, and one computer person. Get out there, make new friends!
