If you are hoping to have your ISMB/BOSC poster printed for you, I saw this on https://www.iscb.org/cms_addon/conferences/ismbeccb2019/posters.php:
Delegates wishing to have their poster printed in Basel can contact iscbposters@thoma-druck.ch to make arrangements. ā¦ Please provide the printer the poster no later than July 15 to ensure your poster is ready.
Hi all,
Every year at BOSC, we organize an informal pay-your-own-way dinner for the first 30 people who RSVP. The dinner will be the second day of BOSC (Thursday, July 25) at 7:30pm at the Basel Markthalle, a food court 2km from the conference center. See the BOSC 2019 dinner page (http://bit.ly/BOSC2019-dinner) for more info and to sign up.
We hope you can join us! š
The complete #BOSC2019 program is now available at https://www.open-bio.org/events/bosc/schedule/! You can download a PDF with all of the abstracts (147 pages--please don't print it! š²) or a short version without the abstracts.
Ho, ho! That worked! :)

Hi, @kaushik-work, thanks for asking and sorry for the delay (the BOSC organizers were all out to dinner).
We ask ALL speakers (not just those with lightning talks) to copy their slides onto the podium computer during the break before their session. Your talk isnāt until Day 2 after lunch, but for those who are speaking in one of the first morning sessions tomorrow (Data Crunching and Data Modeling), they need to copy their slides to the podium computer during the break between the ISMB morning keynote and the BOSC opening at 10:15.

Thatās probably safest. Another option would be to open your slide URL in the web browser on the podium computer and bookmark it so you can bring it up quickly when you start your talk. Thatās riskier, thoughāin my experience, the wifi at conferences is sometimes slow and can be unreliable.
Everyone coming to the CoFest tomorrow or Saturday, please confirm if you need lunch either or both days (new column on the registration form added last night), and if you have any special dietary requirements (e.g. vega, vegetarian). A few people have said they can only come for one day due to travel constraints, so this will really help with catering. Link: https://www.open-bio.org/events/bosc/collaborationfest/

Hi all, if youāre joining us at Markthalle for dinner, there are directions here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15G1RNudlcd1yDV2bNsnnnoTKEwv_2HPBC7FVW30i6iY/edit?ts=5d26ca2f#
(Itās where the ISMB social was on Tuesday evening, for those who went to that)
Even if you didnāt sign up, you can comeājust leave the seats at the reserved BOSC tables for those who did sign up, until 8pm. After that, any empty seats are fair game!

Please order your drinks at the Markthalle bar, even if you order food at one of the food counters. We agreed to order drinks at their bar in exchange for their giving us reserved seating. š„¤šŗš¹š·šø
Do moan at them! Zenodo always permits New Version (with new DOI), you shouldn't be forced to do a fresh deposit
Btw, the BOSC "proceedings" linked to from https://www.open-bio.org/events/bosc/schedule/ are on Google Drive, which feels quite temporary. Could you post the PDF to Zenodo so it has a more long term storage? (Perhaps the same for previous years proceedings)
@nlharris another moan.. (sorry) - why F1000 for posters and slides? It's quite awkward and too rigid to use compared to Zenodo. See thread https://twitter.com/soilandreyes/status/1154724309862162432
Yes, I think it was ISCB that initially led us to F1000? They have also been BOSC sponsors several times (which doesnāt bind us to them, of course, but it is a factor to consider). However, if F1000 is not serving the needs of our presenters (I saw your complaints about it on Twitter), we may reconsider.
Honestly, Iām not sure whether Zenodo existed yet (or maybe we just werenāt aware of it) back when we chose F1000 (several years ago).
