BioDT Hackathon Bring Your Own Data (BYOD), the first BioDT end-users workshop, takes place from 28th to 30th of November, 2023 in Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research - UFZ, Leipzig, Germany.
What is the BioDT Bring Your Own Data (BYOD) Workshop?
The BYOD Workshop is a one-of-a-kind hackathon that aims to involve the community of users through a co-design approach, ensuring that the development of Digital Twins remains user-centric and aligns with the real needs of the scientific community.
Maintaining a user-centric approach is crucial to the success of the BioDT project. To create tools that truly meet the needs of users, BioDT engages user communities and research infrastructures to gather their requirements and feedback. The three-days workshop is design to let experts test the technological prototypes in advance, gather users' inputs and share them with technical partners to ensure effective co-design process.
To guarantee that the solutions BioDT designs align with the requirements of the future users, we've committed to strike a balance between IT experts and domain experts. This is why we've invited carefully chosen experts to guarantee the highest quality outputs.
The series of two workshops Bring Your Own Data (BYOD) and Bring Your Own Model (BYOM) will help BioDT connect with communities beyond the consortium and swiftly familiarise them with the use of Digital Twin services, data, and models. Our primary focus is on life science, marine science, and climate science communities. By leveraging partner networks and ongoing relationships, BioDT engages with the relevant organisations and data holders.
While we would love to have everyone join us at this remarkable event, the Bring Your Own Data (BYOD) Hackathon is an invitation-only gathering. We have extended invitations to distinguished experts in the field who will be instrumental in helping us test the prototype Digital Twins (pDTs) and provide invaluable feedback.
