BOSC 2015 Schedule
From Open Bioinformatics Foundation
It is our hope to have all the posters and talk slides available on the BOSC F1000 Research Channel, with links to the talk videos. Note some speakers have already made their talks available separately on other services like SlideShare and FigShare, which is fine. Links to any slides, posters and videos will be added to this listing as well.
The full program including abstracts is available here. The PDF of this schedule (without abstracts) is available here.
Sponsors
We are grateful to Google for their generous support for videorecording BOSC 2015, and we thank Curoverse (the team behind the open source platform Arvados) as a returning sponsor and welcome Bina as our newest sponsor.
