Hi all,
We had two Outreachy interns working on the wdl2cwl
project [1], Dinithi Wickramaratne (Outreachy, 2021-05) and Dennis Chukwunta (Outreachy, 2021-12).
Their ISMB/BOSC [2] presentation for wdl2cwl
was accepted , and now we want to give the opportunity to one of our Outreacy interns to attend this event in person, presenting their work and inviting more users to try wdl2cwl
.
Unfortunately we have not been able to find a sponsor for the travel and accommodation costs for one of the interns (we have only one ISMB registration fee). If anyone knows a group or an organization that could help us with this travel assistance, please let us know replying here, or writing directly to me or Michael.
The Outreachy internship gives a unique opportunity for underrepresented people to learn and collaborate working on Open Source projects. You can read more about it at https://www.outreachy.org/. We are sure this will be a unique opportunity for our interns to learn and grow both professionally and personally, complementing their Outreachy internship.
Thanks in advance,
-Bruno
