Get Involved

Getting Started

Join our Slack Channel - #Pangenome_Browser.
The hackathon is a great way to get started. We'll be doing a "pregame" for people who have available time and want to begin making a difference today.

You can get started Setting Up Tools for communication and development.

Your efforts are greatly appreciated and may save many lives.

  • Semantic Web using SPARQL
  • Testing
  • File wrangling - finding the latest sequence data and running the analysis pipeline
    • Docker, Linux
  • Server setup - public facing server with data traffic
  • Grant Writers - connect us with the funding sources we need for the long-term effort to build out Pantograph.

  2. Email josiah@newline.us to express interest and ask questions.
  3. You'll be assigned a Pantograph Issue that fits your skills
