Thanks so much. I'm in Australia, so it's probably not an ideal fit, but I'll take a closer look. The physical storage is already established (using the #Pawsey Supercomputing Research Center and the National Computing Infrastructure, #NCI), so it's software more than the service that I need.

But it is great to see so much effort now going into non-SiliconValley digital infrastructure in Europe.

John Amato's commentary raises alarm over Trump's budget cuts jeopardizing the National Cancer Institute's vital Cancer Information Service. Established in 1975, this essential service provides crucial support, including a hotline and updated cancer information. These cuts threaten to dismantle communication resources that cancer patients depend on.

"... the collection of 28 (as of March of this year) cancer experts from universities across the country are there to help guide the NCI’s progress as the preeminent funder of cancer research in the world. As of Monday, no they’re not.

Multiple members have now confirmed to Splinter that the [National Cancer Institute's] Board of Scientific Advisors has been entirely disbanded."

Just heartbreaking. The disbanding of the National Cancer Institute’s scientific advisory board is another blow in a growing list of anti-science moves. It’s short-sighted, dangerous, and future generations will pay the price. #CancerResearch #ScienceMatters #PublicHealth #NCI #ScienceNotPolitics

NEW: Per multiple sources, the National #Cancer Institute’s Board of Scientific Advisors has been entirely disbanded.

The letter informing board members was signed by #Trump’s #NIH director Jay Bhattacharya.

The #data team I lead for the #Australian Plant Phenomics Network (https://plantphenomics.org/) is seeking two additional #Python #developers as part of our efforts to build end-to-end pipelines for #FAIR #research data.

One will focus on interfaces between our nodes and #S3 #repository storage at #Pawsey and #NCI.

The other will build tools to help nodes package complex data using RO-Crate.

The preferred location is Adelaide.
