galaxyprojectGCC2026 is almost here! 🎉
In just a few days, the Galaxy community will come together in Clermont-Ferrand and online for science, training, collaboration, and CoFest.
We can’t wait to see you there!
GCC2026 is only one week away! We’re excited to welcome the Galaxy community to Clermont-Ferrand for a week of science, training, collaboration, and connection.
Safe travels, and we look forward to seeing you soon!
jxtxFoundationCongratulations to Priscilla Garcia (California State University, Stanislaus) — a JJ Fund Travel Fellow! 🎉 A Master's student researching how land use and seasonal hydrology influence microbial communities and antibiotic resistance genes in freshwater ecosystems, combining field sampling with quantitative PCR and sequencing. #GCC2026 #JXTX
Congratulations to Zarlish Attique (Ayass Bioscience, USA) — a JJ Fund Travel Fellow! 🎉 The JJ Fund honors James Johnson, an early Galaxy developer known for training and mentoring users. Zarlish is a Bioinformatics Analyst building scalable RNA-seq and multi-omics pipelines for cancer research. #GCC2026 #JXTX
Congratulations to Olyad Erba Urgessa (Haramaya University, Ethiopia) — a JXTX Foundation Scholar! 🎉 An Assistant Professor with 13+ years in biotechnology, Olyad is pursuing a PhD in Animal Biotechnology. His research focuses on the "omics revolution" in feed enzyme production and advancing genomic research across East Africa. #GCC2026 #JXTX
Congratulations to Finn Beruldsen (University of Houston, PhD Biochemistry) — a JXTX Foundation Scholar! 🎉 Finn works at the intersection of molecular dynamics and computational immunology, developing tools for T-cell system analysis and protein motion visualization — including software like RMSX and Flipbook. #GCC2026 #JXTX
Congratulations to Daniel Golparian (WHO Collaborating Centre, Örebro, Sweden) — a JXTX Foundation Scholar! 🎉 Daniel is a Scientific Officer specializing in microbial genomics and antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae. His work on genomic surveillance and molecular epidemiology of resistant lineages is critical for the global STI response. #GCC2026 #JXTX
The JXTX Foundation honors the legacy of Prof. James P. Taylor, a champion of open science, mentorship, and diversity in computational biology.
