GSC27 Brazil.
The 27th international meeting of the Genomic Standards Consortium will be held in Guarujá, Brazil. Taking place during the week of 28-30th July. The meeting will be located in Hotel Casa Grande, Guarujá, Brazil. The GSC community spans the globe, including international researchers working in collaborative groups to provide a forum for developing and implementing community-driven standards in genomics, ‘omics’, and bioinformatics. Participants in the GSC include clinicians, biologists, chemists, computer scientists, groups building genomic and ‘omic databases, researchers conducting large-scale metagenomics and comparative genomic analyses, and individuals experienced in building community-based genomic standards. Since its founding in 2005, the GSC’s Mission has focused on making genomic data discoverable, reusable, and interoperable through: * The implementation of new community-driven genomic standards * The establishment of methods of capturing and exchanging metadata * Harmonization of metadata collection and analysis efforts across the wider genomics community * Developing and making available standards-related resources and tools to help leverage the exponentially-increasing amount of genomics and metagenomics datasets * Implementing standards for reproducibility across all areas of genomicsGSC27 Daily Agenda Overview:
