Anyone with energy! We love hearing from users, developers, trainers, and everyone in between who is using or developing Galaxy for single cell analysis.
How do we function?
Meetings We meet every 4 weeks (alternating USA, EU and AU time zones) for 1 hour.
Our meeting agenda is:
- Random intro chatter & introductions
- Updates from ClickUp site (what people are working on / asking for help)
- Help/bugs
- Status reports & new stuff that’s happening
- Other cool stuff (example: Smorgasbord)
- Ongoing actions to send out
Emails We send out emails to the mailing list after each meeting, at the mid-way point between meetings, and the day before meetings as a reminder.
Notes We keep rolling notes on a googledoc and monitor our work on ClickUp.
Collaborative Chat Forums When people ask for help or are working across institutes, we set up chat sub-channels to bring them together.
General Chat Forum We have a chat forum to discuss news and ideas, and are represented in the Galaxy Community Reps chat group.
