BioHackathon

DBCLS has been organizing annual BioHackathon event since 2008 [2] and co-organizing with National Bioscience Database Center (NBDC) since 2011. The main objective of the events is a development of technologies and resources which improves integration, preservation and utilization of databases in life sciences.
