F.A.Q.s

I didn't sign up yet, can I still join?
Yes! You may sign up at any time.
I am not planning to come to the next OHBM annual meeting. What now?
That's ok, you will be able to join the session remotely, and otherwise you'll still be part of the challenge!
I didn't make my work reproducible, what now?
It's a great occasion for it to become so!
I cannot share my (raw) data publicly!
No problem(-ish), you can share derivatives, replication is more than fine, and we can help smoothing things (e.g. help with contracts).

We need your help!

Join the OSSIG
