We're thrilled to see the international registrations rolling in to join the global Galaxy community in two month's time in Brisbane. If you haven't registered yet, now is the time! While you can still apply to present a poster or demo for another few weeks, we have reached the final days to nab earlybird pricing. To encourage delegates from a low-income countries we are happy to offer half-price registration.

 GCC2023 will have three inspiring keynote presentations by prominent researchers that actively use Galaxy to make impactful discoveries. The speakers will cover topics on biodiversity and structural biology and their use of the Galaxy platform.
Biodiversity: Dr Carolyn Hogg, Senior Research Manager, Australasian Wildlife Genomics Group, School of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Sydney
Working closely with both academic and conservation management partners, Dr Hogg is creating a conservation legacy for Australia by changing the way science, management and policy interact. Dr Hogg's research proactively promotes species’ resilience in the face of a changing world by developing better tools and technologies to integrate molecular genetics into real-time conservation management decisions for species including the orange-bellied parrots, koalas, bilbies, and woylies.
Structural Biology: Dr Kate Michie, Senior Lecturer, Structural Biology Facility, Mark Wainwright Analytical Centre, University of New South Wales
Dr Michie's research primarily focuses on molecular biology of filament forming proteins, and she brings over two decades of expertise in protein structural biology. In addition to her significant contributions to the fields of bacterial cell division, filament forming proteins and light harvesting proteins from algae, Dr Michie is a leader and community builder who is committed to ensuring structural biology researchers have the skills and access to the computing resources they need to stay competitive on the world stage.
Biodiversity: A/Prof Roberto Barrero Gumiel, Senior Bioinformatics Solutions Architect, Academic Division, Research Portfolio, eResearch, Queensland University of Technology
A/Prof Barrero tackles real world problems in agriculture, plant biosecurity and human health by bringing his molecular biology and bioinformatics skills to large international collaboration consortia and individual research teams alike. He devises innovative strategies in experimental design and implements customised computational workflows for data analysis. The award-winning team led by A/Prof Barrero recently developed a new plant diagnostic toolkit that changed Australia's plant biosecurity practice and quarantine policy.

Generous GCC2023 fellowships are available to support students to attend the conference. Applications are still open for 10 virtual fellowships that cover the cost of virtual conference registration. Recipients will be required to present a poster or demo online during GCC2023. Abstract submission and fellowship applications both close 2 June 2023.

ABOUT GALAXY
Galaxy is a platform for data integration and analysis in any branch of data intensive science. It enables researchers to build, run, share, and repeat their own complex computational analyses using only a web browser and without having to first learn system administration and command line interfaces.
The Galaxy Project is driven by a vibrant community who publish workflows and analyses, wrap new tools, maintain and enhance the source code, provide support, and write documentation and training materials. Galaxy is open-source and freely available, and is deployed in hundreds of organisations, running on everything from laptops to supercomputers to public and private clouds. Over 150 of these platforms are publicly available and can be used with little or no setup. Thousands of tools have been ported to Galaxy and are deployable from the Galaxy Tool Shed. Galaxy was developed to support life science research, but the platform is domain agnostic and is now used in domains as diverse as natural language processing, computational solid geometry, and social science.
