CALL FOR ABSTRACTS FOR ORAL COMMUNICATIONS AND POSTERS The Workshop ‘Reproducibility, standards and SOP in bioinformatics‘ is co-organised by the COST European Action CHARME (CA15110), EMBnet (The Global Bioinformatics Network) and NETTAB (International Workshop Series on Network Tools and Applications for Biology). It is hosted by the ELIXIR-ITA Node and will be held at the Italian CNR (National Research Council) head quarter, in Rome. The workshop will be preceded by a GOBLET/ELIXIR-ITA Tutorial and a ELIXIR Hacktahon on Monday 24th and followed by the EMBNet Annual General Meeting on Thursday 27th.

TOPICS The topics of the joint event include, beside the usual NETTAB workshops topics, an additional special event topic. Reproducibility, standards and SOPs in bioinformatics (Special Event Topic) Bioinformatics methods, algorithms, tools, applications for reproducibility of computational experiments, including: Trends in open science, Open access journals, Open source practices Good programming practices for reproducibility The role of cloud computing in reproducible research Computational tools, such as Sweave, knitr, supporting automatic production of research papers Tools, practices, and dissemination platforms for ensuring reproducibility Role of workflow management systems and ontologies in reproducible research Automatic tools for tracking the provenance of data, analyses, and results Data FAIR-ness Bioinformatics Education and Training (Special Session held in collaboration with GOBLET and ELIXIR-ITA) NETTAB Workshop topics Bioinformatics methods, standards, tools, applications and experiences deployed over Internet, including: On-line databases, software tools, user interfaces Data integration and data fusion platforms, integrated bio-search Grid and clouds applications and platforms APIs and Web Services, workflow management platforms Semantic tools, biomedical ontologies Semantic Web tools, Linked Open Data, SPARQL endpoints Biological Wikis, social applications for life sciences Tools for collaborative development of software, databases and documents Mobile bioinformatics apps KEY DATES Submission deadlines NEW!
