| − | == Acceptance Criteria ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''BOSC''' welcomes submissions about all aspects of open source bioinformatics, open science and open data, including but not limited to reproducible research, citizen/participatory science, standards and interoperability, open source tools for data science and visualization, and medical and translational bioinformatics. '''Work discussed in BOSC presentations must be open source''', with a recognized open source license and an URL for accessing your code. We look for impact of the work in building or sustaining open source communities. We are happy to consider abstracts describing work that has already been published or presented elsewhere, but we ask you to mention that on the submission form. Work that has been presented at a recent BOSC will need to demonstrate significant progress in order to be eligible for a talk at BOSC 2018.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''GCC''' welcomes submissions that use, implement, or extend the Galaxy platform and ecosystem, including but not limited to integrating and analyzing large and diverse datasets in biomedical research; enhancing reproducibility in computational analyses; and fostering collaboration and communication in scientific workflow development.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If your abstract PRIMARILY concerns Galaxy, please submit your abstract to the Galaxy track. If it is accepted for a talk, we will try to schedule your talk during a joint GCC/BOSC session.

| |
| − | ** Title
| |
| − | ** Authors, with the presenting author's name underlined.
| |
| − | ** Author affiliations, including the e-mail address of the presenting author.
| |
| − | ** URL for the overall project web site
| |
| − | ** URL for accessing the code
| |
| − | ** The particular Open Source License being used (for BOSC)
| |
| − | * Use 1 inch (2.5 cm) margins on the top, sides, and bottom of the page, and a font size of 11 or 12.

| − | == BOSC Open Source License Requirement ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The [[OBF|Open Bioinformatics Foundation]], which coordinates BOSC, is dedicated to promoting the practice and philosophy of Open Source Software Development within the biological research community. For this reason, if a submitted abstract concerns a specific software system for use by the research community, then that software must be licensed with a recognized Open Source License, and be available for download, including source code, by a tar/zip file accessed through ftp/http or through a widely used version control system like cvs/subversion/git/bazaar/Mercurial.

| − | == Open Bioinformatics Foundation Travel Fellowships ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The OBF Travel Fellowship program is aimed at increasing diverse participation at events promoting open source bioinformatics software development and open science in the biological research community. The fellowship can be used to cover airfare, hotel and / or conference registration fees up to a value of USD 1,000. BOSC speakers are welcome to [https://github.com/OBF/obf-docs/blob/master/Travel_fellowships.md apply for a fellowship]. The deadline for applying is April 15, 2018.
