Last week, Owen Appleton and Mark Ibberson from the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics coordinating the Swiss FEGA project were delighted to attend the 2025 ELIXIR All Hands Meeting in Thessaloniki, Greece, where they co-led the workshop entitled "A Community of Practice for FEGA node expansion: Experiences, resources, support and future models".
Part of the Swiss FEGA team is back from Prague after a 2-day productive workshop with the Czech team in charge of setting up a federated EGA node in the Czech Republic.
The Swiss FEGA Coordination Team will be happy to chair a workshop at the next ELIXIR All Hands Meeting, taking place from 2–5 June 2025 in Thessaloniki, Greece.
An article entitled "The Federated European Genome–Phenome Archive as a global network for sharing human genomics data" has just been published in Nature Genetics.
In this article, the authors from the FEGA network describe the complexities, challenges and achievements of FEGA, unravelling the dynamic interplay of regulatory frameworks, technical challenges and the shared vision of advancing genomic research.
Enjoy the reading!
The All Hands 2025 Organizing Committee has just selected the worksop proposal submitted by the Swiss FEGA team, which aims at building a Community of Practice for FEGA node expansion. As part of this workshop, the founding FEGA nodes and the new ones are invited to share their experiences throughout the FEGA onboarding journey and reflect on which resources, support and future models would help to facilitate new FEGA nodes being onboard.
