Dear colleagues,
We are searching for people who can share experience (give free webinars/discuss) on multimodal single cell data and widely around.
We are organizing activity on that topic on the border of bioinformatics/data science, see below.
New competition on bioinformatics and data science just started on the Kaggle platform (https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/open-problems-multimodal). It is devoted to analysis of single cell multiomics data - quite a hot topic in modern bioinformatics. The Kaggle platform is famous, and the main idea "want to learn data science - the best way - participate in Kaggle", because on Kaggle people freely share their code, data, ideas, you can see what others are doing and discuss with them. (Kaggle provides motivation system for doing that - medals, titles, etc... The Kaggle title master/grandmaster are respected and allow to find good jobs).
We propose to organize even more activity around that competition: webinars, discussions, journal clubs. Focusing NOT ONLY on the competition , but the research topics around it: single cell RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, CITE-seq, multiomics data integration etc.
Ideally we can write a joint paper as a result of that activity. (For example like https://arxiv.org/abs/2208.05229 where all the work has been done on Kaggle free cloud).
