Special Interest Groups (SIG)

Active Galaxy communities are encouraged to form and govern their own SIG, with a focus on specific shared interests. Each SIG may elect one member to represent their interests on the Galaxy Community Board. This is analogous to the Galaxy Technical Board, consisting of representatives of the Working Groups (WG).

In the following you will find a list of current active Special Interest Groups. If you can't find yourself in this list we always welcome new SIGs. Please read more about the GCB and SIGs and on how to set up your own.

Directory of Special Interest Groups

Genome Annotation

Galaxy as a platform for the annotation of genomes.

Climate

The Climate Science workbench is a comprehensive set of analysis tools and consolidated workflow.

Proteomics

Galaxy-based platform for the functional analysis and the interpretation of proteomics and transcriptomics data in biomedical research.

Natural Language Processing

An open, interoperable web service platform for natural language processing (NLP) research and development.

MicroGalaxy

Anything regarding microbial data analysis in Galaxy, with meetings, working groups, chat and mailing list

Public Health

Announcements and discussion in the Galaxy Public Health Community.
