ELIXIR All Hands Dublin 2023 – Setting the stage for the ELIXIR 2024-28 Scientific Programme
During 5-8th of June, members of the European Galaxy team travelled to Dublin to join the ELIXIR All Hands meeting 2023. Some of us travelled by plane, but Björn and Wolfgang took the ferry:
In Dublin, we joined other colleagues from ELIXIR-DE
All over the 4 days of the meeting, there was a broad presence of Galaxy across the different workshops, symposia, plenary sessions, and posters. We will highlight in this post some of this presence.
