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/](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.
