GCC2019 was held in Freiburg, Germany, 1-6 July. Like previous Galaxy Community Conferences, GCC2019 it featured invited talks, accepted talks, posters and demos, birds-of-a-feather (BoF) gatherings, multiple days of collaborative work, and plenty of opportunities to network with your fellow data-intensive researchers and practitioners. If you are working in data-intensive life science, there was no better place to be.
