Howdy teachers and support staff! We are exploring displaying GTN content directly in the Galaxy Help site, furthering the integration between the GTN and the Galaxy community infrastructure. When you paste a GTN Frequently Asked Questions URL into the Galaxy Discourse, it will now be rendered directly in Discourse!

Figure 1: Adding a GTN FAQ to your Galaxy Help answers can provide learners with a lot of context directly in the post, meaning they never have to leave the thread they're reading to understand what they need to do to resolve their issue.

This integration is currently in beta, and other infrastructure may be affected. If you see GTN FAQ URLs rendering poorly anywhere else, please let us know in the GTN Chat

Scaling Up Hands-On Bioinformatics Training with TIAAS – An Open University Perspective

3 July 2025   gtn TIAAS

Back in September 2024, we ran the Open University Bioinformatics Bootcamp—a free, five-day online course introducing students to the core tools and techniques used in single-cell biology. We were genuinely delighted by the level of interest: 120 students signed up, 100 showed up, and around 80 worked through the hands-on tutorials during the week. That’s a fantastic level of engagement, especially for a course that’s entirely optional and doesn’t count towards their degree.

The Galaxy Training Network (GTN) plays a pivotal role in this educational ecosystem, particularly within the ELIXIR Training Life-Cycle. This blog post explores how the GTN contributes to each phase of the life-cycle and aligns with the SPLASH recommendations, ensuring high-quality training for researchers worldwide.

An Ode to the Galaxy Community and all I learned

This is my ode to the Galaxy Community to say how grateful I have been for your welcome, your energy, and your support. I have learned so very, very much, about bioinformatics; about software development; and most of all, about open-source communities in this complex scientific world.
