Guidlines on the abstract from the Galaxy Web site: https://galaxyproject.org/events/gcc2024/abstracts/
Presentations from the community are a core component of GCCs. These include oral, poster, and demo presentations. All the abstracts for presentations are are submitted by the community and go through a peer review process by the scientific committee before being accepted into the conference program. Once the conference program has been finalized, an electronic version of the abstract book will be made available.
GCC2024 is a Galaxy-centric conference but the topics presented can vary greatly. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following areas:
Methods and pipelines for analysis of data that leverage Galaxy
New or improved features within the Galaxy framework
Outreach, training, and education in data science with Galaxy
Tools and data integrated with Galaxy
Task: Draft an abstract for the Galaxy conference coming up in June. Here is a link to the shared document where that abstract should be drafted. The abstract needs to adhere to the following standards:
- Maximum 500 words
- Demonstrates relevance to Galaxy
- Is compelling, i.e., in the words of the abstract submission page, will "GCC2024 participants find your presentation interesting? Does the abstract describe novel work, interesting results, improvements, lessons learned, and so on."
- Highlights that IGB is open source
Here is a link to the Galaxy submission form.

Activity
The submitted abstract and a copy of the submission form have been attached. We should be informed by Wednesday, 1st May, 2024 whether or not the abstract has been accepted for presentation.
Request for Paige Kulzer:
Please make a new folder 2024-GCC in Dropbox/IGB/Outreach/Conferences and put the attached files in there, as well.
Moving back to "To-Do".
Both of the attached files have been added to a new folder named "2024-GCC" in Dropbox/IGB/Outreach/Conferences. Please note that I've renamed the abstract document to "Abstract-Galaxy2024" to remove special characters from the file name. Ready for review!
All documents have been uploaded – Dr. Loraine verbally confirmed with me that we can go ahead and close this ticket now.
Note for Paige Kulzer and Nowlan Freese:
See these slides for the beginnings of a talk on visualizing tardigrade data: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/1k3ln6utn6wvq27ojcbwv/tardigrade.pptx?rlkey=xbtuf4rgetb5cf2qjuhileqjm&dl=0
title: Tardigrade genome visualization using Integrated Genome Browser, Galaxy, and ???
The goal of this particular slide deck is to highlight how visualization changes how and what we think about data.
Possible abstract associated with the slide deck – one direction we could go with it. However, this abstract seems like it would go with a talk that is longer than 10 minutes.
To make sure they know their data well, researchers need to visualize the data with as many tools as they have at their easy disposal. To make this easy, we linked Integrated Genome Browser to other software systems, including Galaxy. Several years on, we find that the Galaxy connection remains robust, with one important barrier: difficulty mapping genome sequence reference names between assembly providers. This talk will remind developers that this problem still exists, and highlight community efforts to solve it. To help users and educators work with these IGB and its federal tools, we supply a project description for advanced undergraduate bioinformatics methods classes.
