WELCOME to the 1st IO-FAST think tank meeting- a satellite event of the ESSB conference
IO-FAST (initiative for FAIR spatial data) aims to democratize spatial omics data to enable the community to share and (re)use spatial data in a FAIR manner. We will assemble leaders in the field and users to collect ideas, use-cases, pressing problems, solutions and most importantly provide a synergistic environment. With this community-driven effort we hope to introduce easy to apply frameworks and guidelines.
We are looking forward to your registration !
