What we’re about
The club is an informal group at Moffitt dedicated to promoting a fun and supportive culture for learning biological data science. Our meetings are intended for all levels of computational backgrounds. We meet once a month in one of the Moffitt research buildings on the USF campus. The public is encouraged to attend!

Registration for the Bio-Data Club's Annual Hackathon is now open!
The hackathon will commence virtually on Thursday, December 12th, 2024 at 10am and conclude with virtual project presentations on Friday, December 13th at 3pm. A hackathon is an event in which participants come together to build a software product during a short period of time. Here is a short article describing what you can expect. Previous year’s hackathon featured around 50 participants working collaboratively on 4 projects.
Participation is completely optional, and Moffitt employees are under no obligation to participate. However, this will be a fun event and we encourage everyone to sign up! The event will be very low stakes, and we encourage friendly competition between teams. The winning team will be awarded a small prize and bragging rights for the year. Since work on hackathon projects will occur during an intensive 1.5 day period, please make sure to obtain permission to participate from your supervisor or PI.Visit the Bio-Data Club 2024 Hackathon GitHub page for more information and view the teams to see if there is one that excites you!
