Every year, the European Network to Cure ALS, ENCALS, gives a highly competitive award to a young investigator whose research has significant impact on #ALS #MND. The applicants are all amazing. This year it was won by Alfredo Iacoangeli - Congratulations! encals.eu/apply-encals-y…

Come work with us, we are looking for bioinformaticists, data scientists, software devs and project/data managers to help us make progress in open science research in neurodegenerative diseases. Hoping to have these jobs filled by September 1st. #openscience Please share!

Proud of the hard work these 3 put into the #opensource tools they presented today. Here is a link to some slides that cover resources including (drive.google.com/file/d/1f9vS8e…): - genetics focused autoML (GenoML) - user-friendly end-end #GWAS pipeline - easy *-omic integration
