James Taylor (1979-2020) believed that scientific progress can best be sustained through the mentoring of students and junior faculty.
To ensure implementation of this vision, the Galaxy community has established a foundation—Junior Training and Educational Connections Hotspot (JTech). JTech's mission is to (1) assist graduate students to participate in computational biology and data science conferences, and (2) organize and host mentoring sessions between senior and junior faculty members at high-profile meetings. To make this happen we are accepting contributions. More details can be found on the @jxtx page in the Galaxy Hub. Please, help us continue what James has started. |
Data Driven Research for Everyone
Galaxy is an open, web-based platform for accessible, reproducible, and transparent computational biological research.
- Accessible: Users can easily run tools without writing code or using the CLI; all via a user-friendly web interface.
- Reproducible: Galaxy captures all the metadata from an analysis, making it completely reproducible.
- Transparent: Users share and publish analyses via interactive pages that can enhance analyses with user annotations.
- Scalable: Galaxy can run on anything, from a laptop, to large clusters, to the cloud

Supported projects
The UseGalaxy.eu team supports many projects in the Galaxy community:
and also:
- Galaxy HiCExplorer to process, analyse and visualize Hi-C data
Training
We regularly provide workshops
But we cannot always meet capacity, so we've put all of our training materials online. This has become a community project with people from all over the world contributing training materials.
Topics include: variant analysis, transcriptomics, metagenomics, epigenetics, and many more!
Acknowledgements
We are aiming to maintain high competency and provide high quality data analysis services to all our Galaxy users.
Therefore we request that you acknowledge this service by including the members of the Freiburg Galaxy Team as co-authors if they have made a significant intellectual and/or organizational contribution to the work described (conceptualization, design, data analysis, data interpretation and/or input into drafting, revising or writing any portion of the manuscript).
Individuals who have contributed to the project, but whose contributions do not rise to the level justifying authorship, can be recognized in an acknowledgements section of the manuscript as follows:
The authors acknowledge the support of the Freiburg Galaxy Team: Person X and Prof. Rolf Backofen, Bioinformatics, University of Freiburg, Germany funded by Collaborative Research Centre 992 Medical Epigenetics (DFG grant SFB 992/1 2012) and German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF grant 031 A538A de.NBI-RBC).
Additional funding of projects and/or provision of material expenses are welcome as well, to help support our growing Galaxy community in Freiburg.
Downtime Notifications
We want you to feel that useGalaxy.eu is a reliable service, so we are promising to give you advanced warning (when possible) about upcoming downtimes or any events that might degrade the availability of useGalaxy.eu.
- This is a best effort, as much warning as we possibly can
- But we cannot make any regarding downtime notices
- The numbers we provide here are rough estimates
For any planned downtime events:
| Downtime | Advanced Notice |
|---|---|
| <5 minutes | possibly without notice |
| 1 hour | 1 day |
| 1 day | 1 week |
| 1 week | 1 month |
Our Data Retention Policy
Registered Users
User data on UseGalaxy.eu (i.e. datasets, histories) will be available as long as they are not deleted by the user. Once marked as deleted the datasets will be permanently removed within 14 days. If the user "purges" the dataset in the Galaxy, it will be removed immediately, permanently. An extended quota can be requested for a limited time period in special cases.Unregistered Users
Processed data will only be accessible during one browser session, using a cookie to identify your data. This cookie is not used for any other purposes (e.g. tracking or analytics.) If UseGalaxy.eu service is not accessed for 90 days, those datasets will be permanently deleted.FTP Data
Any user data uploaded to our FTP server should be imported into Galaxy as soon as possible. Data left in FTP folders for more than 3 months, will be deleted.GDPR Compliance
The Galaxy service complies with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). You can read more about this on our Terms and Conditions.Service Administration
The maintenance and administration of UseGalaxy.eu is done primarily by the
Freiburg Galaxy Team, an academic group. We work together with other academic
groups across Europe and with the US Galaxy team.
We make a best effort to provide high uptime. Please see our [status page](https://status.galaxyproject.org) for more information.
The Freiburg Team tries to maintain a balance between service uptime and
the health of the administrators behind the service.
Sometimes we are able to achieve this, sometimes due to factors outside
our control, our service is temporarily inaccessible.
