I continue to be amazed how broadly #usegalaxy is reaching... An extension for adding Galaxy tools for VSCode?! Just awesome!
Nicely done David.

VGP (@genomeark), data management/submission and #COVID19 #usegalaxy work are the first talks by @ddlariviere @astrov01 @tatieguinoa and Wolfgang Maier. What a start!

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

Mauro and Lucille are at opposite ends of the Galxy Admin range: Running https://t.co/U7oPaqkA6R is @GMCuccuru’s full time job. Lucille runs a lab server that takes about 10% of her time.

JUST LAUNCHED! Read the UCT eResearch report 2019-2020, which explores what it means to be a research-intensive university in the #African context, and how #eResearch can facilitate the acceleration of local scholarship to contribute to global knowledge. https://t.co/7fHAmqZDgz

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.

In my view, the #Clicks case #BlackHairMatter,is a textbook case of unconscious bias. Calling it out is great but anarchy and violence undermine the cause. The best and most cerebral response I’ve seen so far is a video by young black women, among them my colleague @Diane_Gahiza
