Back in early 2020 the Bio-IT project took another step towards ensuring data privacy. Coupled with learning that different groups at EMBL had multiple independent subscriptions to a broad range of survey platforms, the Bio-IT project setup LimeSurvey locally and gained another powerful and reliable service. Since then, this platform has been used to collect feedback from hundreds of workshop attendees, inquire EMBL’s Python User Group (EPUG) and EMBL’s R User Group communities, and to run several internal surveys.

Participate in our community assessment survey!! This year we want to focus on the sustainability of this community and involve more voices of its members in shaping Bio-IT equity and support strategy. As an effort in this direction, we invite you to participate in our community assessment survey. Your opinion matters to us. Many of you have attended one or several Bio-IT training and networking events organized by Bio-IT coordinators and several community members.
