Description |
|
| The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) has been hosting hackathons at institutions around the US for several years. The goal of these hackathons is to facilitate the assembly of teams of genomics or bioinformatics professionals and software developers to rapidly prototype bioinformatics software: https://f1000research.com/articles/5-672/v2 The structure of the hackathons encourages collaboration across fields of expertise and levels of training (undergraduate through senior developer). **We are currently seeking Team Leads:** Hackathon team leads are typically local post-docs, faculty members, or senior professionals who have an exciting project that they believe could be completed or prototyped over the course of 3 days with a team of bioinformatics trainees.
