Challenges, Opportunities, and Possible Frameworks for Continuing to Build Bioinformatics Software Communities Across Asia
Thursday, December 3 | 1600 – 1645
Virtual Room 1
Bioinformatics software communities face challenges both technical and social in an environment that is constantly changing. Within Asia the challenge is to build on the communities that already exist and to provide a vision of what it could look like in the future. This presentation provides a high-level overview of some of the challenges and opportunities faced by bioinformatics software communities in Asia. It provides examples of international collaboration, open source communities and frameworks that might be of interest to community builders in Asia.
