ChoosingTopics
From today (March 24) we should bring up topics for the virtual BioHackathon on COVID-19. The current list can be found at
https://github.com/virtual-biohackathons/covid-19-bh20/wiki
Feel free to create a topic. If you want to join an existing one: add your name to the relevant wiki page. Perhaps add a description if that is missing.
It is important that
- Topics are centered around deliverable(s). A deliverable does not have to be a completed product - but it should be stated what a group wants to achieve.
- Deliverables have to target things around COVID-19. That is a pretty wide description!
We think it is important to deliver something that works for the biomedical community and humanity in general. We have access to cloud computing and possibly HPC. We can host databases and graph stores. This means we can bring something that works the coming year!
We'll start a separate thread for a project idea on a raw sequence data uploader as a public service. If someone has a similar idea (smaller or larger) please create a new thread on this mailing list. We have seen some interesting ideas already on data sharing, metadata, policies, text mining etc. Start splitting them into tasks. The discussion here is not to dictate what we need to do, but to come up with ideas and see if we can realise them!
