Scverse x sc-Proteomics Hackathon 2026-09 Vienna

Fri, 04 Sep 2026 00:00:05 +0100

Welcome

Join us for the joint scverse x single-cell proteomics hackathon on September 4-5, 2026 at the Vienna Biocenter in Vienna.

This hackathon aims to bring together users and developers of scverse tools with mass spectrometry-based single-cell proteomics (SCP) researchers. The main topic of this hackathon will center on the specialized preprocessing and downstream analysis workflows unique to SCP data.

During this hackathon, we will tackle core computational challenges, settle on robust data formats, and establish best practices for handling low-input MS signals. You will have the opportunity to directly improve existing tools, build missing pieces of the ecosystem, and optimize scverse packages for single-cell proteomics data. All contributions will be made publicly available on GitHub under an open-source license.

scverse x Cell Painting Hackathon 2026-09 Berlin

Wed, 02 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0200

Join us for the scverse × Cell Painting hackathon taking place from Wednesday, September 2 to Friday, September 4 at the Max Delbrück Center, Campus Berlin-Buch, Berlin, Germany.

This hackathon unites the scverse, CytoData Society, and EU-OPENSCREEN communities for three days of collaborative development, bridging scverse and Cell Painting communities at the intersection of image-based profiling, phenomics, and single-cell perturbation analysis.

scverse Hackathon 2026-03 Berlin

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 00:00:05 +0100

Welcome

Join us for the joint scverse x proteomics hackathon on March 30-31, 2026 at the Max Delbrück Center, Mitte campus in Berlin.

This hackathon aims to bring together users and developers of scverse tools, and proteomics researchers, both imaging and mass spectrometry based. The main topic of this hackathon will be around the preprocessing and analysis of proteomic data, including: multiplex immunofluorescence, liquid-chromatrography mass spectrometry (even single-cell proteomics). During this hackathon, we will discuss approaches, data formats, packages, and best practices; and you will have the opportunity to improve these and the realated code. All contributions will be made publicly available on GitHub under an open source license.
