Join us on Wednesday, October 27th from 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm EDT for our first BioData Catalyst Community Showcase and Meet & Greet.


BioData Catalyst users will be providing informal conversations about work they have completed on the ecosystem. They will talk about their research and how they used BioData Catalyst for it, including the components of the ecosystem they used, what helped them accomplish their research, and advice for someone getting started with a project.

What are Community Hours?

BioData Catalyst Community Hours is a monthly, hour-long event where users can learn about features of the ecosystem. The hour is split into time for presentation by a platform team and time for questions. Teams will showcase tools, new features, or tips that meet user needs. After the presentations, time is available for discussion and questions for platform reps from users.
