Network of BioThings: the EU hackathon

Very soon an international hackathon will take place: the Network of BioThings, with events in the USA and in Maastricht, The Netherlands. As I am traveling back from the NanoTox 2014 meeting, I will not be able to join in person, sadly, but will try to join online from Eindhoven.

The hackathon includes lunch, pizza, is synchronized between continents, and is aimed at:

• Hackers and Mentors
• Biologists, Text Miners and Data Wranglers
• Ontologists, Terminologists, and Data Linkers
• Semantic Web novices and experts
• Systems and Network Biologists
• Crowdsourcing experts and functional game designers
• Skills in Large Text/Data Indexing, Facet Search and Browse, and REST APIs
• Domain experts to advise on motivating use cases
