Hi <!channel>! Our next hackathon is coming up! 👉 https://nf-co.re/events/2026/hackathon-march-2026 nf core shake 📆 • March 11-13, 2026 • Online / local distributed sites This year, we are using a hybrid format, with in-person hubs around the world and supported online participation. 📋 PROJECTS One new thing is that projects will be designated for either a primary specific in-person hub OR fully online. • This means project leaders will be present at their designated location. If you're at a hub, join an existing project or create one for your site! • Online projects will be supported by online group leaders. If you're joining remotely, pick an online project or create one of your own. 📌 LOCAL HUBS For the distributed hubs to work, WE NEED YOU! If you're able to book a meeting room or any other kind of space and host a local site, please head to the above page and submit a PR to register your hub. You can find instructions on how to register your in-person hub in the Hackathon website. • You don't need to have anything booked yet; it just helps us know who's interested. • Seqera will support hosts with overall coordination, communication, and snacks, so you won’t be doing this alone. Local sites can be any size. Previously, we've had anywhere from 4-80 people at a given site. Even if it's just you and a few colleagues, please do let us know! 📆 KEY DATES • Project proposals: Open NOW • Site registration: Open NOW • Participant registration: Opens February 2026 Please get those sites and projects registered ASAP so we can include them on the site.
